Overview
Brief Summary

Detailed Description
The aims of the studies are to examine the impact of delayed time to surgery for hip-fracture patients with regard to in-hospital complication rate and one-year mortality and to evaluate two different fast-track systems, the hip process pathway and the ambulance process pathway, for hip-fracture patients with regard to patient outcome, complication rate and patient satisfaction.
