Blood tests may reveal frailty in hip fracture patients
NCT ID NCT06614478
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether older adults who are frail before hip fracture surgery have higher levels of inflammation, measured by simple blood tests. Researchers will enroll 200 patients aged 65 and older and check their frailty using a standard questionnaire. The goal is to better understand how frailty and inflammation are linked, which may help improve care after surgery.
