Summary

The investigator wishes to see if it is possible to undertake a study comparing blood transfusion at two different levels of anaemia to see which is best for patients. All patients that present to hospital with a broken hip will be able to take part in the study. If they become anaemic during their treatment they will be allocated to either be transfused when their blood count is less that 9 or less than 7. In all patients, we will measure heart damage with a blood test that is very sensitive. The investigator will also collect data on the incidence of heart attacks and other complications.
