CARDIOVASCULAR Randomized controlled trial of goal-directed haemodynamic treatment in patients with proximal femoral fracture
نویسندگان
چکیده
Editor’s key points † This trial compared goal-directed haemodynamic therapy and conventional management in elderly patients undergoing femoral fracture surgery. † This is the largest single study in this patient group, but the trial was stopped early with no significant differences in primary outcomes. † The number of patients achieving haemodynamic goals was similar in both groups. † These results may reflect other differences in patient management in this study compared with previous data. Background. Patients with proximal femoral fracture (PFF) are at high risk of postoperative complications. Goal-directed haemodynamic treatment (GDHT) in other high-risk surgical patients reduces postoperative complications. We aimed to compare effects of GDHT and routine fluid treatment (RFT) on postoperative outcomes after PFF surgery.

Randomized controlled trial of goal-directed haemodynamic treatment in patients with proximal femoral fracture.
BACKGROUND Patients with proximal femoral fracture (PFF) are at high risk of postoperative complications. Goal-directed haemodynamic treatment (GDHT) in other high-risk surgical patients reduces postoperative complications. We aimed to compare effects of GDHT and routine fluid treatment (RFT) on postoperative outcomes after PFF surgery. METHODS PFF patients (≥70 yr) were enrolled in this sing...
متن کاملDoes Tranexamic Acid Reduce Bleeding during Femoral Fracture Operation?
Background:Proximal Femoral shaft fractures are commonly associated with marked blood loss which can lead topostoperative acute anemia and some other complications.Tranexamic acid (TA) is an antifibrinolytic medication that reduces intra-and postoperative blood loss and transfusionrequirements during some elective surgeries (1-3).The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of intravenous Tr...
متن کاملA trial assessing N-3 as treatment for injury-induced cachexia (ATLANTIC trial): does a moderate dose fish oil intervention improve outcomes in older adults recovering from hip fracture?
BACKGROUND Proximal femoral fractures are associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Pre-existing malnutrition and weight loss amongst this patient group is of primary concern, with conventional nutrition support being largely ineffective. The inflammatory response post proximal femoral fracture surgery and the subsequent risk of cachexia may explain the inability of conventional high e...
متن کاملThe efficacy of oral Erythromycin in the treatment of patients with Pityriasis Rosea: A randomized double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial
Background: Pityriasis rosea is an acute, inflammatory and self-limited disease, which is characterized by a primary scaly plaque (Herald patch) followed by a generalized, symmetrical papulosqumous eruption (Mostly on trunk and proximal extremities). Objective: To determine the efficacy of erythromycin in the treatment of patients with pityriasis rosea. Patients and Methods: In this doubl...
متن کاملComparison between the effects of preoperative skin traction and under knee pillow on pain relief in the patients with proximal femoral fracture
Background and Aim: Proximal femoral fracture is one of the most common fractures, especially among elderly people. Skin and skeletal traction are usually used to reduce the pain in the patients before surgery. In this study we investigated the effects of skin traction and use of pillow under knee before surgery on pain relief in the patients with proximal femoral fracture. Material and Methods...
