To evaluate the postoperatively hidden blood loss of elderly intertrochanteric fracture patients fixed with combined external fixator, and to explore the correlation between hidden blood loss and age.
A retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 elderly intertrochanteric fracture patients who were admitted to the Department of Orthopedics of Hebei Provincial Hospital from January 2016 to May 2019. All the fractures were fixed with combined external fixators. The patients were divided into two groups according to the age: there were 31 cases in group A (60-80 years old) and 29 cases in group B (≥80 years old). The Gross equation and the Nandler formula were used to evaluate the amount of hidden blood loss based on changes in hematocrit (Hct) at the day preoperatively, 3 days postoperatively and the weight. The data were compared between the two groups by independent-sample
test.
The decreased Hct, hemoglobin(Hb) and the dominant blood loss and hidden blood loss in group A and B was 3.4%±1.7%, (13±7) g/L, (25±6
