Summary

To investigate the impact of personalized rehabilitation guidance based on the WeChat Official Accounts Platform on the functional recovery and quality of life of patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA).Ninety patients diagnosed with KOA undergoing joint replacement were included via convenient sampling.The patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,with 45 patients in each group.The control group received traditional rehabilitation guidance,while the observation group received personalized rehabilitation guidance through the WeChat Official Accounts Platform in addition to the traditional guidance.Different care plans had varying effects on patients' scores on the 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36),Visual Analog Scale (VAS),and Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale.
