Bleeding study for hip fracture patients on blood thinners
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial looks at patients with a broken hip who take a type of blood thinner called a NOAC. It measures bleeding during surgery to fix the hip, without stopping or delaying the surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe to operate right away.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have a broken hip (femoral neck fracture)
- You take a NOAC blood thinner (like apixaban, rivaroxaban, edoxaban, or dabigatran)
- You are able to understand and sign a consent form
- You are having your first surgery for this injury

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at whether fixing a hip fracture sooner is better for people who take a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) blood thinner. It compares early surgery versus delayed surgery in people whose delay is specifically from the blood thinner.
This study looks at whether the timing of hip fracture surgery affects the need for blood transfusions in patients taking blood thinners (DOACs). It might help guide better care for people on these medications.
This trial tests whether a combination of two blood thinners (rivaroxaban and aspirin) is better than aspirin alone at preventing clots after hip fracture surgery, for people who also had a mild heart injury. It may help find a safer, more effective way to prevent dangerous blood clots.
This trial studies which pill regimen helps prevent dangerous blood clots after hip fracture surgery. You might be eligible if you’re 50 or older and can start treatment soon after your injury.
This study tests whether giving one dose of a medicine called tranexamic acid (which helps reduce bleeding) works as well as two doses during hip fracture surgery. It may help people who need surgery for a broken hip near the thigh bone.
This trial compares two approaches for preventing blood clots in older adults who broke a hip. The goal is to find the safest and most effective way to manage clot risk after surgery.
