Summary

This study tests a simple, family-led program called "Delirium Zero" to prevent confusion (delirium) in older adults after hip fracture surgery. About 140 patients over 65 will be randomly assigned to either standard care or the Delirium Zero protocol, which includes a wall clock, an orientation poster, and a checklist for family caregivers. The goal is to see if this low-cost approach can keep patients mentally clear during their hospital stay.
