Do Patients Taking Warfarin Experience Delays to Theatre, Longer Hospital Stay, and Poorer Survival After Hip Fracture?

TL;DR: After controlling for multiple prognostic factors such as age, sex, ASA score, AMTS, fracture type, operation type, and WAI, warfarin therapy at the time of injury is associated with increased time to surgery, length of stay, and decreased survival.

Impact of Direct Oral Anticoagulants in Patients With Hip Fractures

TL;DR: The authors found no evidence of higher bleeding rates in HF patients on DOACs compared with COUs, and suggested earlier HF fixation might be indicated in DOAC patients.

Impact of oral anticoagulation on proximal femur fractures treated within 24 h - A retrospective chart review.

TL;DR: Early surgical care of proximal femur fractures is safe even in patients with anticoagulant medication, and patients on DOAC should be preoperatively prepared for possibly intraoperative transfusion.

Definition of major bleeding in clinical investigations of antihemostatic medicinal products in non-surgical patients: Definitions of major bleeding in clinical studies

TL;DR: A definition of major bleeding in non‐surgical patients was developed that should be applicable to studies with all agents that interfere with hemostasis, including anticoagulants, platelet function inhibitors and fibrinolytic drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Definition of major bleeding in clinical investigations of antihemostatic medicinal products in surgical patients.

TL;DR: A definition of major bleeding that should be applicable to all agents that interfere with hemostasis is developed and is to seek approval from the regulatory authorities to enhance its incorporation into future clinical trial protocols.

Incidence and mortality of hip fractures in the United States.

TL;DR: In the United States, hip fracture rates and subsequent mortality among persons 65 years and older are declining, and comorbidities among patients with hip fractures have increased.

Time trends and demography of mortality after fractured neck of femur in an English population, 1968-98: database study.

TL;DR: The high mortality rates, and the fact that they have not fallen over the past 20 years, reinforce the need for measures to prevent osteoporosis and falls and their consequences in elderly people.
