AI Article Synopsis
- The study examines the occurrence and factors influencing hidden blood loss during surgery in elderly patients with hip fractures.
- Out of 145 patients analyzed, 42 experienced occult blood loss, resulting in an incidence rate of about 29%.
- Key factors linked to this blood loss include the type of surgical procedure, anesthesia used, drainage post-surgery, and autologous blood transfusion practices, indicating the need for preventive strategies in clinical settings.
Article Abstract
Objective: To analyze the incidence and influencing factors of perioperative occult blood loss in elderly hip fracture patients.
Methods: 145 cases of elderly hip fracture patients treated at our hospital from July 2022 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were grouped based on the presence or absence of perioperative occult blood loss.
Results: A total of 145 elderly hip fracture patients were included, with an average occult blood loss of 574.58±63.21 ml. Occult blood loss occurred in 42 cases, with an incidence rate of 28.97%, while 103 cases did not experience occult blood loss, with an incidence rate of 71.03%.
Conclusion: Perioperative occult blood loss in elderly hip fracture patients is common and is associated with factors such as the type of surgery, anesthesia, postoperative drainage, and autologous blood transfusion. These factors constitute risk factors for perioperative occult blood loss in this patient population and warrant clinical attention and early preventive measures.
