Arthroplasty more clinically and cost-effective than reduction & fixation for hip fracture .
This study has been identified as potentially high impact.
OE's AI-driven High Impact metric estimates the influence a paper is likely to have by integrating signals from both the journal in which it is published and the scientific content of the article itself.
Developed using state-of-the-art natural language processing, the OE High Impact model more accurately predicts a study's future citation performance than journal impact factor alone.
This enables earlier recognition of clinically meaningful research and helps readers focus on articles most likely to shape future practice.
Randomized Comparison of Reduction and Fixation, Bipolar Hemiarthroplasty, and Total Hip Arthroplasty
J Bone Joint Surg Am. 2006 Feb;88(2):249-60299 healthy older patients with displaced intracapsular fractures were randomised to undergo one of three surgical procedures. The three methods of treatment were reduction and fixation, bipolar hemiarthroplasty with cement, and total hip replacement with cement. The primary outcomes were hip function, clinical results, and healthcare costs. The results of this study indicated that the arthroplasty procedure was more clinically advantageous and more cost effective compared to the other two procedures.
