Dynamic hip screw with locking side plate: a viable treatment option for intertrochanteric fracture
Chinese Journal of Traumatology, 2014 Objective: Dynamic hip screw (DHS) is recommended for the fixation of stable intertrochanteric fractures. Its postoperative cut-out rate ranges from 1% to 6%. In osteoporotic bone, normal screws in DHS blade provide less anchorage compared to locking

Patterns of Discharge Analgesic Prescription in Hip Fracture Patients by Label of Cognitive Status: A Retrospective Pilot Study. [PDF]
Health Sci RepABSTRACT Background and Aims Pain relief is known to be under‐prescribed in cognitively impaired patients. Though cognitive impairment (CI) may lead to lower reported pain at times, differences disappear at higher pain levels, where nociception is similar between groups. CI research also exhibits reduced placebo responsiveness in patients.
