Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Current primary outcome measure as of 08/04/2020: Health-related quality of life measured using the EuroQol 5 dimension(EQ-5D-5L) score at baseline (retrospective pre-fracture status) and 4 months post-operatively _____ Previous primary outcome measure: 1. Recruitment rate per centre 2. The number of patients for whom autotransfusion is possible 3. The volume of blood autotransfused | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Current secondary outcome measures as of 08/04/2020: 1. Health-related quality of life measured using the EuroQol 5 dimension(EQ-5D-5L) score at baseline and 12 months post-operatively 2. Post-operative delirium risk measured using 4AT at baseline 3. Residential status measured using NHFD questions at 4 and 12 months post-surgery 4. Mobility measured using NHFD questions at 4 and 12 months post-surgery 5. Allogenic blood usage measured using hospital records at baseline 6. Mortality measured using death notifications from hospital records at 4 and 12 months post-operatively 7. Haemoglobin concentration at baseline 8. Complications, measured using medical records (check any complication classified as adverse events on the protocol will be collected from recruitment until the 12 -month time point) 9. Costs and comparative cost-effectiveness measured using hospital records and resource use questionnaire at 4 and 12 months post-operatively _____ Previous secondary outcome measures: 1. Health-related Quality of life will be collected using the EuroQol 5 dimension(EQ-5D-5L) score. This will be collected at baseline(retrospective pre-fracture status), 30 and 120 days post-operatively. 2. Units of allogenic blood transfused, this information will be collected at baseline. 3. Mortality 4. Haemoglobin concentration, this information will be collected at baseline 5. Complications, any complication classified as adverse events on the protocol will be collected from recruitment until the 4-month time point. 5.
