[Research progress of multidisciplinary team co-management models for geriatric hip fracture treatment].

OBJECTIVE

To summarize the research progress of multidisciplinary team (MDT) co-management models in the clinical treatment of geriatric hip fractures.

METHODS

The literature about types and characteristics of MDT for geriatric hip fracture treatment were extensively reviewed, and the advantages of its clinical application were analysed and summarised. Finally, the MDT model and characteristics of geriatric hip fracture in the Zhongda Hospital affiliated to Southeast University were introduced in detail.

RESULTS

Clinical models of MDT are diverse and have their own characteristics, and MDT can shorten the length of stay and waiting time before operation, reduce the incidence of internal complications, save labor costs, and reduce patient mortality.

CONCLUSION

The application of MDT in the treatment of geriatric hip fracture has achieved remarkable results, which provides an optimal scheme for the treatment of geriatric hip fracture.
