Congratulations to @neumanmd and the team for conception, completion and publication of the #REGAIN RCT of general (inhalational) vs spinal (with or without sedation) for people with #HipFracture. A huge achievement👏nejm.org/doi/full/10.10… Some thoughts... 1/ 🧵
...Anaesthetists seem to have been debating whether mode of anaesthesia for #HipFracture makes a difference for this group of often older, frailer people for decades now. Lots of strong opinions and a mixed bag of observational studies. So good grounds for the #REGAIN study 2/
...equally a lot of debate about whether one hour (or so) of anaesthesia will make a difference to a *patient-centred* outcome in the midst of a pathway involving ED, surgery, nursing, (ortho)geriatrics, pharmacy, physiotherapy, community care...3/
Guideline for the management of #HipFractures from @AAGBI Out for consultation: anaesthetists.org/Portals/0/PDFs… What do people think? Edited highlights to follow...
Why new guidance for #HipFracture now? Basically - things move on, new data emerge, guidance should never stand still. 
The fundamental principles of #HipFracture haven't changed but are well described in the @FF_Network consensus statement. Right people, clear standards, processes and feedback on outcomes.
