HIP ATTACK: Insights from the Investigators .
Investigators provide their insights gathered around the HIP ATTACK trial to highlight how a decade-long effort evolved into the largest randomized study on hip fracture surgery, reshaping long-held assumptions about timing of care. Contributors describe how the trial challenged beliefs that delays were safer, showing instead that accelerated surgery can reduce major complications and shorten hospital stays. The reflections emphasize broad, multidisciplinary collaboration and note that rapid surgical pathways proved practical, safe, and aligned with the physiological needs of frail patients, setting the stage for wider changes in urgent surgical care.
