BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: There remains a need for effective and accessible education methods to support recovery after total hip replacement. To evaluate the effects of video-based education on daily living activities and wound healing of patients undergoing total hip replacement surgery. METHODS: A randomised controlled trial was used. Eligible participants were those aged 18 years and over who had undergone total hip replacement surgery in a training and research hospital. The intervention group received video-based training, while the control group received only routine care. RESULTS: Patients in the video-based training group showed significantly greater improvement in daily living activities, hip function, and wound healing on postoperative days 5 and 30 compared to the control group (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Video-based education significantly improved daily living activities, hip function, and wound healing in patients undergoing total hip replacement. Clinicaltrials ID: NCT06523829.
