Perioperative outcomes
Brief summary
HIP ATTACK is an international randomized controlled trial of 3000 patients with a hip fracture that requires a surgical intervention. This trial will determine the effect of accelerated medical clearance and accelerated surgery compared to standard care on the 90-day risk of mortality and major perioperative complication (i.e., a composite of mortality, nonfatal myocardial infarction, nonfatal pulmonary embolism, nonfatal pneumonia, nonfatal sepsis, nonfatal stroke, and nonfatal life-threatening and major bleeding).
Interventions
Rapid medical clearance with targeted arrival to the operating room within 6 hours of diagnosis of a hip fracture requiring surgical repair.

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* age ≥45 years; and * diagnosis of hip fracture during working hours with a low-energy mechanism (i.e., falling from standing height) requiring surgery.
Exclusion criteria
* patients requiring emergent surgery or emergent interventions for another reason (e.g., subdural hematoma, abdominal pathology requiring urgent laparotomy, acute limb ischemia, other fractures or trauma requiring emergent surgery, necrotising fasciitis, coronary revascularization, pacemaker-implantation); * open hip fracture; * bilateral hip fractures; * peri-prosthetic fracture; * therapeutic anticoagulation not induced by a Vitamin K Antagonist, unfractionated heparin, (e.g., administration of therapeutic Low Molecular Weight Heparin (LMWH) (\>6,000 u/24h) in the 24 hours prior to enrolment, or intake of any other non-reversible oral anticoagulant(s) for which there is no reversing agent available * patients on a therapeutic vitamin K antagonist with a history of heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT); * patients refusing participation; or * patients previously enrolled in the study.
