Services Mapping Among Older Adults With Hip Fracture (HiFit)

February 3, 2020 updated by: The George Institute for Global Health, China

Multicenter Prospective Observational Study in Hip Fracture Among Older Adults

Hip fracture is a osteoporosis-related fracture with higher mortality, and is a major public health issue in China. The British Orthopedic Association and the British Geriatric Society have published the UK Blue Book, which summarizes current evidence and best practice in the hip fracture care and secondary prevention, but this kind of standardized practice in hip fracture care is not yet existed in China. The Blue Book standards will be used as the most contemporary evidence-based guidelines for management of hip fracture.This study is to prospectively examine the barriers and facilitators in the current management of hospital in China by comparing the Blue Book standards.

Study Overview

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Operative administration within 48 hours
Time Frame: One year
The proportion of patients who are operated within 48 hours in the past one year
One year

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
A&E Admission within 4 hours
Time Frame: One year
The proportion of patients who admit to orthopaedic ward from A&E within 4 hours in the past one year
One year
The Incidence of Pressure Ulcer
Time Frame: One year
The incidence of pressure ulcer in the past one year via nurses provide assessment
One year
The Proportion of Patients Who Receive Geriatrician Assessment
Time Frame: One year
The proportion of patients who receive the assessment of geriatricians in the past one year
One year
The Proportion of Patients Who Receive Osteoporosis Assessment and Treatment
Time Frame: One year
The proportion of patients who receive osteoporosis assessment and treatment the hospital provided in the past one year
One year
The Proportion of Patients Who Receive Specialist Falls Assessment
Time Frame: One year
The proportion of patients who receive specialist falls assessment in the past one year
One year

Other Outcome Measures

Other Outcome Measures

For clinical trials, a planned measurement described in the protocol that is used to determine the effect of an intervention/treatment on participants. For observational studies, a measurement or observation that is used to describe patterns of diseases or traits, or associations with exposures, risk factors, or treatment. Types of outcome measures include primary outcome measure and secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mortality Rate in One Month, Four-Month, and One Year
Time Frame: One month, four-month, and one year
The mortality rate in one, four-month, and one year after admission to hospital
One month, four-month, and one year
The Incidence of Complications in One Month, Four-Month, and One year
Time Frame: One month, four-month, and one year
The incidence of complications in one month, four-month and one year after admission to hospital, including pneumonia, deep vein thrombosis, heart disease, etc.
One month, four-month, and one year
