Mortality analysis in hip fracture patients: implications for design of future outcome trialsN B Foss
Department of Anaesthesia and Orthopaedic Surgery, Hvidovre University Hospital, Copenhagen DK 2650, Denmark
Br J Anaesth 94:24-9. 2005..The purpose of this prospective study was to analyse causes of mortality, and thereby the potential and limitations to decrease mortality after hip fracture surgery...
Hidden blood loss after surgery for hip fractureN B Foss
Hvidovre University Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark
J Bone Joint Surg Br 88:1053-9. 2006..We conclude that total blood loss after surgery for hip fracture is much greater than that observed intra-operatively. Frequent post-operative measurements of haemoglobin are necessary to avoid anaemia...
Post-operative rounds by anaesthesiologists after hip fracture surgery: a pilot studyN B Foss
Department of Anaesthesia, Hvidovre University Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark
Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 50:437-42. 2006..The early phase of rehabilitation could potentially be optimized through a multidisciplinary effort between anaesthesiologists and orthopaedic surgeons...
Short-term mortality in hip fracture patients admitted during weekends and holidaysN B Foss
Department of Anaesthesia, Hvidovre University Hospital, DK 2650 Copenhagen, Denmark
Br J Anaesth 96:450-4. 2006..We therefore examined early postoperative mortality in hip fracture patients admitted during weekends and holiday periods, compared with normal weekdays...
Effect of postoperative epidural analgesia on rehabilitation and pain after hip fracture surgery: a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trialNicolai Bang Foss
Departments of Anaesthesiology and Orthopaedic Surgery, Hvidovre University Hospital, DK 2650 Copenhagen, Denmark
Anesthesiology 102:1197-204. 2005..No studies exist on the effect of postoperative epidural analgesia on pain and rehabilitation after hip fracture surgery...

Ugeskr Laeger 167:3297-300. 2005..We did a study to validate the Timed Up & Go (TUG) and New Mobility Score (NMS) as predictors of functional mobility, functional level, change of residence and home aid, six months after hip fracture...
[Fast-tracking admission from emergency room to orthopaedic ward in hip fracture patients]Pia Søe Jensen
Hvidovre Hospital, ortopaedkirurgisk afdeling, Hvidovre
Ugeskr Laeger 169:808-12. 2007..The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of an optimised admission protocol on the time spent in the A&E in an already established multimodal rehabilitation program...

Department of Anesthesiology, Hvidovre University Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark
Acta Anaesthesiol Scand 50:428-36. 2006....
Liberal or restrictive fluid administration in fast-track colonic surgery: a randomized, double-blind studyK Holte
Department of Surgical Gastroenterology, Hvidovre University Hospital, DK 2650 Hvidovre, Denmark
Br J Anaesth 99:500-8. 2007..Therefore, we investigated the effects of two regimens of intraoperative fluids with physiological recovery as the primary outcome measure after fast-track colonic surgery...
