Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Peak post-operative delirium as measured by the Memorial Delirium Assessment Scale (MDAS) at days 1-5 after surgery.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Pain measured using the standard Functional Pain Scale (FPS)/Pain Assessment in People with Advanced Dementia (PAINAD), for participants with and without mental capacity respectively, before surgery and days 1-5 after surgery. 2. Delirium screening using the 4AT test before surgery and days 1-5 after surgery. 3. Health-related quality of life using the Euroqol-5D-5L pre-injury, at 4 and 12 months post-diagnosis of a hip fracture. 4. Cognitive impairment using the Telephone Interview for Cognitive Status (TICS) at 4 and 12 months post-diagnosis of a hip fracture. 5. Subjective mobility status measured using the UK National Hip Fracture Database Mobility Scale at 4 and 12 months post-diagnosis of a hip fracture 6. Residential status measured using the UK National Hip Fracture Database Residential Status at 4 and 12 months post-diagnosis of a hip fracture 7. Mortality risk using death notification up to 12 months post-diagnosis of a hip fracture 8. Risk and pattern of complications measured using bespoke reporting forms up to 12 months post-diagnosis of a hip fracture. 9. Resource use from an NHS and personal social services perspective calculated using bespoke reporting forms up to 12 months post-diagnosis of a hip fracture.
