A REGIONAL AUDIT ON THE PROVISION OF TOTAL HIP REPLACEMENT FOR DISPLACED INTRACAPSULAR HIP FRACTURES
Full Access
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) currently recommends the use of total hip replacement (THR) for displaced intracapsular hip fractures in cognitively competent patients and who were independently mobile with the maximum use of one stick prior to the injury. We conducted a prospective cross sectional study of the management of hip fractures within a defined geographic region in the North East of England to assess current practice and variation in provision of THR for displaced intracapsular hip fracture.Introduction
