82% drop
Save nearly 30,000 yuan!
On April 20, Henan officially implemented the selected price for the centralized procurement of artificial joints organized by the state. Among them, the average price of the hip joint fell from 35,000 yuan to about 7,000 yuan, and the average price of the knee joint fell from 32,000 yuan to about 5,000 yuan, with an average price reduction of 82%, and the burden on patients was significantly reduced.
On April 21, Grandma Yang, 92 years old
Just woke up from anesthesia
Who would have thought
Such an old man
Just experienced one
Hip replacement surgery
2 days ago
Grandma Yang watched TV at home as usual
Just on the way from the living room to the bathroom
I accidentally fell
It was felt at the time
The pain in the left hip was unbearable
Can't stand up, can't walk
Family members hurried to dial 120
Rush to arrive
Zhengzhou Central Hospital affiliated to Zhengzhou University
Undergo an emergency assessment
Clearly Grandma Yang is
Fracture of the neck of the left femur
Admitted to orthopedic ward 1 for treatment
So old
After this happens
The most frightening thing is
Long-term bed rest for recuperation
Let's not talk about it
Many elderly patients often have a combination
High blood pressure, diabetes
Chronic bronchitis, emphysema, etc
A variety of medical diseases
Prolonged bed rest can lead to it
The primary disease is exacerbated
Worse still
Once in bed for a long time
Pneumonia, thrombus, pulmonary thromboembolism
Complications such as pressure ulcers and urinary tract infections
And it will follow
The best solution
It is the surgical replacement of artificial joints
Advanced age is not a problem
At the age of 92, underlying diseases are conjured up
It's not taboo
Because the hospital has
Years of Medical Surgery Virtual Ward
Available for elderly patients
Full closed-loop management before and after surgery
Hospitals are even for a lot
Centenarians over the age of 100
Had hip replacement surgery
The oldest is 106 years old
Plus the hospital every year
More than 500 cases have been carried out
Artificial joint replacement surgery
The technology is also very mature
What worries Grandma Yang and her family
I heard about joint replacement surgery
Tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of expenses
Ward Director Zhu Zhi
After knowing Grandma Yang's concerns
Patiently explain it
Rest assured! Now the state has carried out a "collection" of artificial joints, and the price of joints has been reduced! Originally, an artificial hip joint may cost about 35,000 yuan, but now it only costs about 7,000 yuan, saving nearly 30,000! And the joint mass does not decrease!
Are you sure? That's great!
When can I have surgery?
Because Grandma Yang has
History of previous hypertension
Passed through the Department of Geriatrics and hypertension
Consultation with the Department of Anesthesia and Perioperative Medicine
Grandma Yang's personalized surgical plan
and incorporated VGUs
(Medical Surgery Virtual Ward)
and ERAS (Accelerated Rehabilitation) management
Ensure the safety of perioperative patients
This morning
The surgery proceeded as scheduled
Enjoy the special government allowance of the State Council
Orthopedic specialist

It was done for Grandma Yang
Hip replacement
The procedure takes only 20 minutes
Very successful
Day after tomorrow
Grandma Yang can get out of bed and "walk the bend"
Director Zhu Zhi reminds:
The occurrence of falls in the elderly is more common than many people think.
Affected by the physiological conditions of the elderly, the fatality rate and disability rate of falls are also higher than many people think.
Therefore, the elderly must pay attention to prevent falls, and the home should do a variety of measures to prevent falls, such as floors, washrooms to be non-slip, no obstacles in the aisles, furniture to be firmly fixed, etc.
At present, joint replacement and internal fixation surgery for fractures in the elderly are actually very mature.
As long as the elderly are suitable in all aspects, they should follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment, do not easily give up the opportunity for surgery due to advanced age, and the sooner the better.
