What this Trial Is About
The goal of this observational study is to observe the postoperative dietary intake in older adult hip fracture patients from their day of surgery (day zero) until day three inclusive. The aims of this study are: Primary aim: To observe if the postoperative dietary energy intake (kJ/kcal) of older adult hip fracture patients meets Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) needs. Secondary aims: To explore if there is a correlation between postoperative dietary intake and length of hospital stay. To explore the relationship between comorbidity (where reported) and postoperative dietary intake, according to dietary intake. To explore (if) in the development of postoperative complications (infection, pressure ulcer and VTE), there is a correlation with postoperative dietary intake.
