In today's episode we follow Grace, who seems confused despite a successful hip surgery. This episode unpacks the difference between dementia and delirium; why delirium matters so much in hip fracture care, and what the evidence shows we can do to prevent it. With practical bedside tips and strategies, we explore how the whole team — from doctors to nurses to families — can reduce the burden of this hidden complication. Links: ‘Hip Fracture – the Cardiff approach’ on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLH4P3rNfQEEswi7nEQQLTyyz7b2XVB4Ez4A Test: ⁠https://www.the4at.com/⁠ Reducing delirium after hip fracture: a randomized trial: Marcantonio et al.
