“…Postoperative CRP is a sensitive marker for detecting postoperative complications, especially delirium, in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. [ 20 2125 ] In agreement with previous studies, our results showed that patients with postoperative delirium had higher pre- and postoperative CRP levels than did those without. Delirium per se is associated with an increased risk of death in elderly patients with hip fractures.…”

“…Considering the time course of the CRP in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery, the CRP level tends to be elevated postoperatively and peaks on the second postoperative day [21] . Postoperative CRP is a sensitive marker for detecting postoperative complications, especially delirium, in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.…”

“…Only individual research projects have studied cytokines levels after trauma in the elderly, but without comparison to other age groups. In our study, however, higher levels of IL-8 on the fifth day after trauma in patients over 60 years old had a positive correlation with infectious complications [ 19 ].…”

“…[2] However, acute inflammatory response during the postoperative period can be affected by different factors, such as type of surgery. Sedlár et al [13] reported that elevation of CRP, WBC, and IL-6 levels was highest in patients treated with hemiarthroplasty compared with patients treated with osteosynthesis. Del Prete et al [14] found that secretion of inflammatory markers, especially IL-6, is less marked when minimally invasive techniques are used compared with traditional surgery for the fixation of pertrochanteric fracture via dynamic hip screw.…”
