Brief summary

Measurement of thrombogenic properties by TEG and MEA and observation of thrombotic events over 2 years in 220 patients with hip fracture.

Detailed description

Patients with proximal femur fracture have high incidences of thrombotic events. By the two bed-side methods TEG (Thrombelastography) and MEA (Multiple Electrode Aggregometry), the thrombogenic properties of 220 patients with proximal femur fracture will be measured at time of hospital admission and 4 times over a period of 6 months postoperatively, and the patients will be followed in a total length of 2 years to register thrombotic events.
