Not Applicable

• Conditions: Intertrochanteric Fractures

• Registration Number: NCT04470115
• Lead Sponsor: Military Institute od Medicine National Research Institute

Brief Summary

This single-center open label study compares the outcomes of surgical repair of intratrochanteric fracture under general anesthetic or peripheral nerve blocks.

Detailed Description

This single-center open label study compares the outcomes of surgical repair of intratrochanteric fracture under general anesthetic or peripheral nerve blocks.

Patients are high risk individuals scheduled for intratrochanteric fracture repair, with contraindications to spinal anesthesia. One group will receive general endotracheal anesthetic, the other femoral and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve with deep sedation.

Mortality, morbidity (major cardiovascular incidents,delirium, pneumonia), pain scores and opioid consumption will be recorded.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Percentage of patients suffering from major cardiovascular event during 30 days after the surgery.	30 days from the day of the surgery.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Opioid consumption	first 24 hours after surgery	Opioid (eg morphine) consumption will be noted
Pain score after surgery	first 24 hours after surgery	Patients will be asked about their pain ranks 6 and 24 hours after surgery. The NRS score will be used (0 to 10) where 0 is no pain and 10 is extremely severe pain.
