Article Synopsis
- Hip fractures have serious impacts on patient health, and efforts like the National Hip Fracture Database were implemented to improve care in hospitals.
- An audit was conducted on 379 patients over two cycles to evaluate and enhance the timing of surgical interventions for hip fractures, revealing significant delays in the first cycle compared to the second.
- Following targeted changes, there was a notable increase in timely surgeries (from 41% to 78% within 36 hours of admission) and overall quality of care, demonstrating the effectiveness of analyzing and addressing specific hospital service issues.
