Prediction of postoperative morbidity, mortality and rehabilitation in hip fracture patients: the cumulated ambulation scoreNicolai B Foss
Department of Anaesthesiology, Hvidovre University Hospital, Copenhagen DK 2650, Denmark
Clin Rehabil 20:701-8. 2006..To validate the cumulated ambulation score as an early postoperative predictor of short-term outcome in hip fracture patients...
The effects of liberal versus restrictive transfusion thresholds on ambulation after hip fracture surgeryNicolai B Foss
Department of Anesthesia, Hvidovre University Hospital, Denmark
Transfusion 49:227-34. 2009..Perioperative anemia leads to increased morbidity and mortality and potentially inhibits rehabilitation after hip fracture surgery. As such, the optimum transfusion threshold after hip fracture surgery is unknown...
Impact of surgical complications on length of stay after hip fracture surgeryNicolai B Foss
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Hvidovre University Hospital, Denmark
Injury 38:780-4. 2007..Data suggest that surgical complications requiring reoperation may lead to an excessively long in-patient stays. However, the overall impact of surgical complications has not been examined in detail...
Fascia iliaca compartment blockade for acute pain control in hip fracture patients: a randomized, placebo-controlled trialNicolai B Foss
Department of Anesthesiology, Hvidovre University Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark
Anesthesiology 106:773-8. 2007..Pain treatment is traditionally based on systemic opioids. No study has examined the effect of fascia iliaca compartment blockade (FICB) in acute hip fracture pain management within a double-blind, randomized setup...

Department of Anesthesiology, Rigshospitalet Copenhagen University, Copenhagen DK 2100, Denmark
Br J Anaesth 102:111-6. 2009..Hip fracture patients experience high pain levels during postoperative rehabilitation. The role of surgical technique on postoperative pain has not been evaluated previously...
Risk factors for insufficient perioperative oral nutrition after hip fracture surgery within a multi-modal rehabilitation programmeNicolai B Foss

Age Ageing 36:538-43. 2007....
Anaemia impedes functional mobility after hip fracture surgeryNicolai B Foss
Department of Anaesthesia, Hvidovre University Hospital, Hvidovre, Denmark
Age Ageing 37:173-8. 2008..We therefore conducted a prospective study to establish whether anaemia affected functional mobility in the early post-operative phase after a hip fracture surgery...
Timed "up & go" test as a predictor of falls within 6 months after hip fracture surgeryMorten T Kristensen
Department of Physiotherapy, Hvidovre University Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark
Phys Ther 87:24-30. 2007..The purpose of this study was to determine whether TUG scores obtained upon discharge from an acute orthopedic hip fracture unit can predict falls in people with hip fracture during a 6-month follow-up period...

Department of Surgical Gastroenterology, Hvidovre University Hospital, Hvidovre, Denmark
Anesth Analg 105:465-74. 2007..In this study we investigated the effects of two levels of intravascular fluid administration ("liberal" versus "restrictive") in knee arthroplasty on physiological recovery as the primary outcome variable...
In-hospital hip fractures: prevalence, risk factors and outcomeNicolai B Foss
Department of Anaesthesia, Hvidovre University Hospital, Copenhagen DK-2650, Denmark
