LSP 2.5g/50 mL: 1500C ¼ . Cost calculated by rounding to the number of vials (for example, 4F-PCC 1600IU=4 vials). Currently, daily hospital stay cost in a surgical unit =258,8C ¼ /day. Results 691 patients included,148(21,0%) anticoagulated. 25 (4,0%) excluded because of no surgery, so the final analysis included 666 patients,141 anticoagulated. 63(44,7%) were anticoagulated with acenocoumarol, 40(28,4%) apixaban, 29 (20,6%) rivaroxaban, 12(8,5%) dabigatran, 8(5,7%) edoxaban and 1(0,7%) with warfarin. Early surgical goal in orthogeriatric patients in Spain (proximal femur fracture in patients >65 years) is intervention in <48 hours since admission. It was only achieved in 12,8% of anticoagulated patients in 2020 and 2021(18). Meantime between admission and surgery =4 ± 6 days. Days between admission and surgery =574 for all anticoagulated patients in total. Estimated total cost of anticoagulant reversal =134.683,5C ¼ (955,2C ¼ /patient). Assuming this strategy is used and surgery is performed in the first 24 hours, hypothetical hospitalisation cost could decrease, saving 574 admission days and 148.537,3C ¼ . Conclusion and RelevanceEarly hip fracture surgery within 48 hours from admission reduces complications in elderly patients. Anticoagulation reversal strategies in anticoagulated patients have a significant economic impact but would allow to reduce hospital stay with potential savings in healthcare costs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
