Summary
Delirium is common in the elderly after hip fracture surgery, and is associated with worse
outcomes. The investigators hypothesize that, for elderly patients after hip fracture
surgery, dexmedetomidine supplemented analgesia can reduce the incidence of delirium and
improve the long-term outcomes.
