Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study to assess the impact of nutritional support guided by repeated measurements of REE in geriatric patients following surgery for hip fractures.

Our hypothesis is that tight caloric control will reduce the risk of significant postoperative complications in geriatric patients following surgery for hip fractures.

Study Design :Prospective, Single center, Randomized, Unblinded study. Study Population:geriatric patients following surgery for hip fractures.


Clinical Trial Description

The primary outcome:

presence of postoperative complications,hospital length of stay.

Secondary outcomes:
