Prehospital pain management in older adults with proximal Femur fractures: current practices and implications for delirium prevention
Prehospital pain management and documentation is still insufficient in older patients. If any correlation between different types of prehospital analgesia and perioperative delirium is to be found we first need to implement a sufficient standard of care regarding pain management. Fluid substitution can be useful if the individual state of dehydration is evaluated.
