Look before you leap: How transthoracic ECHOcardiography before fractured Neck Of Femur saves lives in frail older people – the proposed Pragmatic ECHONOF III trial
Purpose:
Hip fracture surgery is a major World health care burden that is worsening as the average age increases, causing major suffering to the patients and their families. This randomised controlled trial will confirm whether or not our preliminary studies are correct which have suggested that an ultrasound of the heart performed before hip fracture surgery results in saving lives and reducing health care costs. Bedside ultrasound results in increased effectiveness of care of these very frail patients
