About this trial

The aim of the study is to investigate the impact of time to closed reduction on both patient related and organizational factors. These include, length of stay, hospitalization, admission to intensive care unit, rehospitalizations, delirium, all-cause mortality, infection requiring hospital contact, and cardiovascular complications. It is also intended to investigate whether different anaesthetic strategies and airway management are associated with different complication rates.

It is hypothesized that longer waiting time until reduction increase the postoperative length of stay, readmissions, and risk of complications.
