Summary

This study looks at whether low oxygen levels during sleep (nocturnal hypoxia) after hip fracture surgery in people over 70 is linked to delirium (sudden confusion) and other hospital complications. Researchers will monitor 70 patients using oxygen sensors and check for delirium with a standard test. The goal is to better understand these risks to improve care for older adults after hip surgery.
