Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the incidence and risk factors associated with preoperative heart failure in elderly patients who suffered hip fractures, analyzing data from 1,569 patients over seven years.
- Significant differences in variables like age, gender, and existing health conditions were found between patients with and without heart failure, with independent risk factors identified through logistic regression analysis.
- The research concluded that factors such as being male, increasing age, arrhythmia, and dementia independently raise the risk of heart failure before surgery, which is linked to higher complications and mortality rates post-surgery.
Objective: To study the effect of ultrasound-guided fascia iliaca compartment block on perioperative analgesia and postoperative complications in geriatric patients with hip fractures.
Methods: A total of 127 elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery from January 2021 to September 2021 were randomized to receive ultrasound-guided continuous fascia iliaca compartment block(group F) either intravenous analgesia control group(group C). There were 62 cases in group F, including 19 males and 43 females with an average age of (82.
