Anesthesia And Post-operative Mortality After Proximal Femur Fractures

NCT02406300 · Status: TERMINATED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 57

Summary

This study evaluates the effect of anesthesia on mortality after surgical repair of proximal femur fracture.

Patients will receive either a subarachnoid block or a combination of peripheral nerve blocks and light general anesthesia (PNB/GA).

The investigators hypothesis is that a combination of peripheral nerve blocks with an opioid free light anesthesia may have more favourable outcomes.

Both groups will be followed up for assessment of post-operative morbidity and mortality.
