This study systematically explores the assessment tools for balance function in elderly patients after total hip arthroplasty and their clinical applications, while also envisioning future trends toward multidimensional integration and intelligent development. By summarizing the commonly used subjective and objective assessment in clinical practice and analyzing the application of these methods in preoperative prehabilitation and postoperative rehabilitation monitoring for elderly total hip arthroplasty patients, this article proposes that future efforts should focus on promoting the integration of subjective and objective assessment, developing intelligent predictive models, and establishing closed-loop rehabilitation systems to enhance the precision and effectiveness of assessment and rehabilitation.
