Traditional methods, such as distributing manuals of rehabilitation guidance on THA and phone call follow-ups, were adopted in the control group, whereas educational animated film was used as continuous rehabilitation guidance after discharge in the experimental group. Differences in recovery of hip joint function, accuracy of functional exercise, mastery of rehabilitation knowledge and quality of life between the two groups were compared. Results The experimental group had superior performance on all indicators compared to the control group ( P Conclusions The use of educational animated film as continuous post-discharge rehabilitation guidance in patients after THA achieved better effects than traditional education methods.
