Frailty, hip fractures and inflammation study
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how frailty and inflammation affect recovery after a hip fracture in older adults. It aims to find biomarkers that could help personalize care.

This study looks at frailty in older adults who have a certain type of hip fracture. It may help doctors better understand how frailty affects recovery after hip surgery.
This study looks at how decisions are made for older patients with hip fractures who are also frail. It aims to improve shared decision-making between patients, families, and doctors, so patients can be more involved in their care choices.
This study looks at whether a simple score (Nottingham Hip Fracture Score) and a frailty check can help predict survival after hip fracture surgery. It aims to help doctors better understand risks for older adults who need hip surgery.
This study looks at how muscle loss (sarcopenia) affects recovery after a hip fracture, comparing people of normal weight and those with obesity. It may help find better ways to support recovery.
This trial looks at ways to help “frailty” (low strength and resilience) in people staying in intensive care units. It mainly enrolls adults who expect to be in the ICU for more than 24 hours, and it tries to avoid people whose mobility problems have other causes.
This study checks if the size of a thigh muscle and a nutrition score can help predict recovery in older patients having hip fracture surgery. It might help doctors plan better care after surgery.
