Peri-operative Vasopressor Support in Patients Operated for an Acute Hip Fracture (AHF)

• Status: Completed
• Phase: —
• Study type: Observational
• Enrollment: 997 (actual)
• Sponsor: Sahlgrenska University Hospital · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: —
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

The incidence of hypotension perioperatively during operation of an acute hip fracture is unknown. As a surrogate factor the usage of vasopressor support is more adequate as the registration of vasopressor drugs are many times not complete in records. The investigators retrospectively investigated the anesthetic journals of 1100 patients with an acute hip fracture (AHF) noting confounding factors and the usage of vasopressors either by injections or infusions and then correlated these results to mortality at 30-, 90- and 365- days
