There is one clinical trial.
In early 2020 the evolving COVID-19 Pandemic provided the world and medical community with a generational challenge. As a novel disease, countries were left with strategic decisions and many went into social lockdown. Initial resources and research were directed at upscaling internal medicine and intensive care services, understanding the disease pathophysiology, and testing treatments. It soon became evident that COVID-19 had multi-system effects at it's worst. In orthopaedics one of the most vulnerable groups to COVID-19 were the elderly, specifically those who suffered fractured neck of femur at this time. More literature is needed urgently if we are to understand and mitigate the negative impacts in this group of patients. This observational study assesses the early morbidity and mortality of patients with this diagnosis during the evolving COVID-19 Pandemic.
