Hip Fractures

Brief summary

The aims of the studies are to examine the impact of delayed time to surgery for hip-fracture patients with regard to in-hospital complication rate and one-year mortality and to evaluate two different fast-track systems for hip-fracture patients with regard to patient outcome, complication rate and patient satisfaction.

Detailed description

The aims of the studies are to examine the impact of delayed time to surgery for hip-fracture patients with regard to in-hospital complication rate and one-year mortality and to evaluate two different fast-track systems, the hip process pathway and the ambulance process pathway, for hip-fracture patients with regard to patient outcome, complication rate and patient satisfaction.
