About this study

Official title: Impact of "ASAP" Multidisciplinary Optimization Care Protocol on Clinical Outcome in Elderly Inpatients for Hip Fracture: Retrospective Cohort Study

To compare the impact of ASAP protocol (geriatric advice, early surgery, loco-regional anesthesia and pharmacological adaptation) on elderly patients with hip fracture and clinical outcome.

Read the detailed description

Retrospective double cohort analysis for ASA physical status 1, 2 and 3 elderly patients >65 years old, scheduled to undergo surgery for hip fracture between January 1st 2017 and December 31st 2022.

The investigator want to confirm the better outcome on 30-days mortality after surgery in patients where the ASAP protocol was applied, starting from 1 January 2020.

ASAP protocol follow the latest international guidelines about hip fracture in elderly patient. The investigator focuses the research about the impact of ASAP protocol on clinical outcome: geriatrician's advice, impact of loco-regional techniques on intra-operative and postoperative pain control, chronic pharmacological therapy's adaptation and 30-days postoperative mortality.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ASAP care's protocolOther

    Early geriatrician's advice, prefer locoregional anesthesia techniques where possible, early surgical therapy and medical adaptation on chronic patient's therapy (in particular with regard to sedative, anticholinergic and psychotropic drugs).
