HIP Fracture Accelerated Surgical TreaTment And Care tracK 2 Trial
Purpose
The HIP ATTACK-2 trial is a multicentre, international, parallel group randomized controlled trial to determine whether accelerated surgery for hip fracture in patients with acute myocardial injury is superior to standard care in reducing death at 90 days after randomization. The trial will also assess secondary outcomes at 90 days after randomization: inability to independently walk 3 metres, time to first mobilization (first standing and first full weight bear), composite and individual assessment of major complications (e.g., mortality, non-fatal myocardial infarction, acute congestive heart failure, and stroke), delirium, length of stay, pain, and quality of life.

Inclusion Criteria
- age ≥45 years; 2. diagnosis of hip fracture during working hours with a low-energy mechanism requiring surgery; 3. troponin elevation on hospital arrival (at least one troponin level from hip fracture occurrence to randomization above the upper limit of normal); and 4. written informed consent.
Exclusion Criteria
- taking a therapeutic dose of an anticoagulant for which no reversing agent is available; 2. patients on a therapeutic vitamin K antagonist with a history of heparin induced thrombocytopenia (HIT); 3. patients with peri-prosthetic fracture, open fracture or bilateral fractures; 4. patients requiring an emergency surgery for another reason (e.g., subdural hematoma); 5. patients with acute myocardial infarction with a mechanical complication (i.e., acute papillary muscle rupture, ventricular septal defect), ST elevation myocardial infarction, or cardiogenic shock; 6. patients refusing consent; or 7. patients previously enrolled in HIP ATTACK-2.
