Objective  To summarize the best evidence for prevention and management of joint dislocation after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and provide evidence-based support for reducing the occurrence of joint dislocation after THA. Methods  The databases and websites related to prevention and management of joint dislocation after THA were searched, mainly including clinical decisions, guidelines, expert consensuses, evidence summaries, systematic reviews. The search period was from January 1, 2020 to April 30, 2025. Results  Finally, 12 articles were included, including 2 guidelines, 4 systematic reviews, 4 clinical decisions, and 2 evidence summaries. The 5 dimensions of evaluation, preventive measures, early dislocation identification, daily activity recommendations, and health education were summarized and organized into 25 pieces of evidence. Conclusions  The overall quality of the evidence related to the prevention and management of joint dislocation after THA summarized in this study is good. Medical staff should selectively apply the evidence based on clinical situations to develop safe, scientific, and personalized anti-dislocation plans for patients, in order to reduce the occurrence of joint dislocation and improve patient prognosis.
