Abstract： Objective To investigate the influence of physician-nurse collaborative functional exercise instruction mode on the compliance of elderly femoral neck fracture patients.Methods 60 elderly patients with femoral neck fracture were randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group,each with 30 cases.The control group was treated with conventional functional exercise instruction while the experimental group was treated with physician-nurse collaborative functional exercise instruction.Results The patients who took functional exercise according to the exact action,time and part as doctors and nurses requested were more in the experimental group than in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (x2 =10.184,10.311,15.148,respectively;P ＜ 0.05).When discharged from the hospital,the patients in the experimental group could grasp (5.65 ± 0.63) exercise action,better than (3.62 ± 0.64) in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (t =11.963,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Physician-nurse collaborative functional exercise instruction mode is helpful to improve the compliance of elderly femoral neck fracture patients in the hospital.
