Summary

Geriatric hip fracture is an important disease that affects the health life of the elderly in China. Geriatric hip fracture is often complicated by a variety of comorbidities due to advanced age. And anemia is a common comorbidity. At present perioperative management of geriatric hip fracture, transfusion is only indicated for moderate and severe anemia, while no special medical intervention for mild anemia in China. More and more studies have found that iron can not only correct anemia, but also improve cardiac function, patients' quality of life and function. This study investigated the effect of perioperative iron supplementation on activity tolerance in elderly patients with hip fracture complicated with iron deficiency anemia. The study was a randomized, parallel controlled clinical study. Due to the requirements of the ethics committee, the unblinded setting was cancelled due to ethical considerations. Research will be grouped according to whether to accept iron supplementation treatment, are divided into 2 groups, respectively, iron treatment group and the traditional method. The method of randomization was stratified block randomization. The experimental group added to the intravenous iron sucrose during perioperative period according to the degree of iron deficiency. If there is still a iron deficiency or anemia at discharge, oral ferrous lactate is added after discharge. The outcomes include 6-minute walk distance, Harris score, EQ-5D score six months after surgery, perioperative blood transfusion rate, and so on in the two groups.
