Key findings explored included:
  • Among patients with hip fractures accelerated surgery did not significantly lower risk of mortality or composite of major complications compared with standard of care, however there was no evidence of harm even in subgroups with acute medical conditions.
  • Accelerated surgery demonstrated lower risk of delirium, urinary tract infection, moderate-severe pain scores, faster mobilization, standing, and full-weight bearing , and shorter length of hospital stay compared with standard of care.
  • Accelerated surgery demonstrated mortality advantage compared with standard of care in patients with elevated troponin before randomization.
