Hip fractures(Neck of femur, Intertrochanteric femur, Sub trochanteric femur) are a common source of morbidity and mortality worldwide in geriatric population. Geriartic population is defined as one greater than 65yrs of age20. The global burden of hip fractures is likely to increase significantly from an estimated 1.7 million in 1990 to 6.3 million in 2050. 1,2 Management of hip fractures is based on individual patient factors, such as preinjury ambulatory status, age, cognitive function, and comorbidities, and on fracture factors, including fracture type and the degree of displacement. Treatment options include nonsurgical management and surgical managements. Joint medical, anaesthetic and orthopaedic care from the time of admission can lead to a reduction in length of stay and inpatient mortality and increase the proportion of patients returning to their original level of activities. Well-designed primary, secondary, and tertiary preventive efforts applied in both affluent as well as developing countries are desirable to reduce the present and future burden associated with hip fracture injuries
