Post-operative Delirium (POD) in Patients Undergoing Hip Fracture Surgery

The primary endpoint of the study is the appearance of Post Operative Delirium within the first 3 months.

The secondary endpoints are the development of POCD, dementia of any type of new onset at 12 months, mortality at 30 days, postoperative hospitalization time (including rehabilitation performed within the Polyclinic).. The analysis of the risk factors of POD and their correlation with the development of POCD/Dementia in the post-surgery period will provide important information for the optimization of the management path of these patients at an individual level , with inevitable repercussions on the possibility of reintegration into social and family life
