<h3>Importance</h3> Decision-making on management of proximal femoral fractures in frail patients with limited life expectancy is challenging, but surgical overtreatment needs to be prevented. Current literature provides insight into the true outcomes nonoperative and operative this patient population. <h3>Objective</h3> To investigate vs institutionalized older expectancy. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> This multicenter cohort study was conducted between September 1, 2018, April 25,...
A double-blind randomized study was performed to evaluate the effect of oral ribose supplementation on repeated maximal exercise and ATP recovery after intermittent muscle contractions. Muscle power output measured during dynamic knee extensions with right leg an isokinetic dynamometer before (pretest) (posttest) a 6-day training period in conjunction (R, 4 doses/day at g/dose, n = 10) or placebo (P, 9) intake. The protocol consisted two bouts ( B) contractions, separated by 15 s rest. Bouts...

Background and purpose — Surgical treatment is still the mainstay of care even in very frail elderly hip fracture patients. However, one may argue whether surgery best interest all We elucidated mortality rates nonoperative management (NOM) a after shared decision-making cohort Patients methods Orthogeriatric patients (age > 70 years) admitted with between 2011 2019 were included. In presence fragility features motivation for or NOM was supported by advance planning (ACP) through geriatric...
Recent research has highlighted non-operative management (NOM) as a viable alternative for frail older adults with hip fractures in the final phase of life. This study aims to guide Dutch physicians and hospitals nationwide standardised implementation shared decision-making regarding surgery or NOM selected fracture. The patient population includes aged ≥70 years an acute proximal femoral fracture, nursing home care similar level elsewhere at least one additional criterion (ie, malnutrition,...
The aim of this study was to provide a comprehensive overview (preoperative and geriatric) diagnostic testing, abnormal tests their subsequent interventions, clinical relevance in frail older adults with hip fracture.
Abstract In the present open prospective study effects of quetiapine were investigated in two elderly patients with parkinsonism and psychosis. Treatment induced a marked antipsychotic effect that coincided an improvement general motor functioning. These findings support idea may be preferentially use parkinson’s disease psychotic symptoms.
Oropharyngeal dysphagia (OD) is commonly encountered in elderly patients with hip fracture. It easily overlooked and predisposes to life-threatening postoperative pneumonia. The aim of this study was evaluate whether OD screening by nurses results a better recognition at risk for OD. After the introduction Standardized Swallowing Assessment nurses, incidence increased prevention complications were monitored (intervention group; N = 92) compared historical control group ( 81). diagnosed 27...
