Mortality Following Surgery for Proximal Femoral Fractures

Proximal femoral fractures are most frequent traumatologic and orthopedic diagnoses undergoing surgery. It affect most seniors and accompanied by a series of complications. The aim of our retrospective clinical trial is to establish a thirty-day mortality rate after surgical solutions, mortality during hospitalization and compare the types of anesthesia chosen during the performance (general vs. subarachnoid anesthesia).

  • American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score
  • time since injury and surgery (hours)
  • whether surgery was initiated during the day (7:00 - 20:00) or at night (20:00-07:00)
  • type of administered anesthesia (GA, epidural anaesthesia, Subarachnoid (spinal) block)
  • hemoglobin level prior to surgery
  • haemotransfusion administration during surgery
  • perioperative administration of vasopressors
  • anesthetist erudition (with / without accomplished residency)
  • surgeon erudition (with / without accomplished residency)
