Abstract

To compare perioperative hidden blood loss in the treatment of femoral intertrochanteric fractures with percutaneous compression plate (PCCP) and proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) in elderly patients, and analyse its influencing factors in order to provide the necessary data support for clinical perioperative treatment, and choice of appropriate internal fixation method. Retrospective analyses was carried out on data obtained from 158 patients with intertrochanteric fracture treated with PCCP or PFNA from January 2010 to May 2017. Data were obtained from variables such as age, gender, height, weight, operative bleeding and postoperative drainage, operation time, etc. Upon blood routine examination before and after surgery (RBC, Hb and Hct), total and hidden blood losses were calculated using Gross equations. A comparative analysis was carried out on the differences in hidden blood loss, postoperative complications and prognosis between PCCP and PFNA.Visible blood loss was higher in PCCP than in PFNA, but total and hidden blood losses were significantly lower in PFNA(P
