ABSTRACT
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the risks of undergoing intramedullary nailing with minimum surgical optimization (fast-track) for geriatric trochanter fracture due to fall from a standing height. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From May 2006 to August 2013, 48 fractures were enrolled in fast-track, and were an average age of patients was 77.6 years (range, 62-97 years). They underwent primary testing for anesthesia, including basic body fluid test, arterial blood, electrocardiography, and chest radiographs. The time from visit to surgery was 28.9 hours (range, 1-96 hours). RESULTS: During hospitalization, there was one case of stress-induced cardiac arrest; however, other complications, infection, and 30-day mortality did not occur. According to preoperative classic test, the average albumin was 3.45 g/dl, blood sugar, 169 mg/dl, blood urea nitrogen, 20.5 mg/dl, Cr, 1.5 mg/dl, Na, 135.3 mEq/L, and K, 4.21 mEq/L. The average PaCO2 of arterial blood was 37.6 mmHg. CONCLUSION: We found that the fast-track for trochanteric fracture due to slip-down was relatively safe, and could be considered as a therapeutic approach.
