研究概览
简要总结
The main objective of this research will be to investigate whether the control of care provided by the family/caregiver can prevent the incidence of delirium in individuals undergoing surgical intervention for hip fracture.
The research will be a randomized, single-blind, parallel, two-arm clinical trial that compares two conditions: intervention group, hereafter IG (Delirium Zero protocol based on a space-temporal orientation poster for the patient, a clock hung on the wall next to the orientation poster, and a checklist for the preventive measures taken by the caregiver/family), and control group, hereafter CG (standard of care).
The participants will be patients over 65 years old, admitted to the trauma hospitalization units at the La Fe University and Polytechnic Hospital (La Fe Health Department, Valencia, Spain) and at the Manises Hospital (Manises Health Department, Spain), who have had hip fracture surgery and are accompanied by a family member/caregiver. The research will take place in these centers because the rooms are private, which allows there to be no interference between the intervention under study (in the IG) or the standard care (CG).

入选标准
- •The participants will be patients over 65 years old
- •Admitted to the orthopedic hospitalization units of La Fe University and Polytechnic Hospital (La Fe Health Department, Valencia, Spain) and Manises Hospital (Manises Health Department, Spain).
- •Who are undergoing surgery for hip fracture
- •Accompanied by a family member/caregiver who understands Spanish and knows how to read and write it.
排除标准
- •- Delirium at the time of admission to the trauma guard (assessed with the CAM scale).
- •Have previously been diagnosed with severe cognitive impairment according to the Pfeiffer scale, which corresponds to a score of 8-10 points.
- •Have previously been diagnosed with any serious mental disorder (schizophrenic disorders, schizotypal disorders, persistent delusional disorders, substance-induced delusional disorders, schizoaffective disorders, other non-organic psychotic disorders, bipolar disorder, serious depressive episode with psychotic symptoms, and severe recurrent depressive disorders). - that they have delirium at the time of admission to the trauma room.
- •That they have a language barrier, deep aphasia, coma, or terminal illness.
- •That they have been previously enrolled in this study.
- •That before the surgery they were admitted to a different hospital unit than those participating in the study, although they may then be transferred to one of these trauma units.
- •That they present brain alterations (tumors, occupying lesions).

结局指标
主要结局
Delirium: incidence
时间窗: Baseline, from the patient's admission to the trauma unit until hospital discharge or assessedup to 6 weeks, whichever came first.
It will be measured using the Confusion Assessment Method scale. It will be measured twice daily, in the morning and in the afternoon, during all days of hospitalization, in all participants, regardless of the group they belong to. The scale allows for the detection of acute confusional state (delirium) using an algorithm that assesses four criteria: criterion 1 (presence of an acute and fluctuating change in the patient's mental status and behavior), criterion 2 (inattention), criterion 3 (disorganized thinking), and criterion 4 (altered level of consciousness). To establish the presence of delirium, the presence of criteria 1 and 2 is mandatory, as well as any one of criteria 3 and 4. A criterion is considered present when: the questions are answered affirmatively (for criteria 1, 2, and 3) and when the level of consciousness is other than alert (for criterion 4).
