About

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that by allowing patients with an anticoagulant level less than 100 ng/ml to have their fracture managed surgically, will reduce the delay in surgery and therefore the complications associated. It will also demonstrate that there are no more complications with this new management than from remaining with a bleeding fracture.

Full description

Fracture of the upper extremity of the femur are constantly on the increase and represent a public health issue in a population with increasing life expectancy. In the majority of cases, this fracture requires rapid surgical treatment, ideally within 48 hours, before complications, associated with the supine position, appear. A prolonged surgical delay is responsible for multiple complications and increase mortality in a potentially comorbid and fragile population.

Oral anticoagulants (NACOs) are now widely used in general population for cardiovascular diseases, such as non-valvular atrial fibrillation or thrombo-embolic events. Their activity and circulation rate are assessed by an Anti-Xa assay. The current recommendation for scheduled surgery is an assay with an anti-Xa activity of less than 50 ng/mL.

The acquisition of this assay and the wait for a decrease in anti-Xa activity are currently a factor of lengthening the surgical delay leading to proposal a new dosage. By offering the possibility of surgical management with an anti-Xa activity of less than 100 ng/ml, the purpose is to demonstrate a reduction in surgical delay (less than 48 hours) and associated complications. One of the secondary purposes is also to demonstrate that there are no more intra and post-operative complications with this new protocol.
