Early Surgical Fixation of Low-Velocity Hip Fractures in Patients With Direct Oral Anticoagulation
Sponsor: Medical University of Vienna
Summary
Prospective cohort study on patients with intertrochanteric fractures under direct oral anticoagulation (DOAC) therapy undergoing early surgical fixation (within 24 hours). The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the reduction of the peri operative blood loss. The secondary aim is to assess the influence of early surgical fixation of intertrochanteric fractures in patients with DOAC therapy on the 30-day and 1-year mortality. Moreover, the prospective cohort group of patients will be compared with a retrospectively analyzed age-, gender- and fracture-type-matched control group of patients who underwent delayed surgical fixation from January 2014 to December 2018 (≥ 48 hours).

Early Surgical Fixation vs. Delayed Surgical Fixation
Evaluation of the reduction of the peri-operative blood loss in patients undergoing early surgical fixation (within 24 hours) of an intertrochanteric fracture under DOAC therapy compared to a retrospectively enrolled group of patients who underwent delayed surgical fixation (≥48 hours) of an intertrochanteric fracture under DOAC therapy.
