NCT ID NCT06893562
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether a set of steps to prevent urinary tract infections and bladder swelling in older hip fracture patients still works 9 years after it was first put in place. Researchers will compare infection and bladder problem rates from year 9 to earlier years in 750 patients aged 65 and older. The goal is to see if the improvements lasted and to guide future hospital policies.
