Global surgery: Hip fracture care in Asia
Grace Drury will discuss ‘HIPCARE: an NIHR Global Health grant to improve quality-of-life for hip fracture patients and to reduce healthcare costs in Asia’.
HIPCARE is a cluster randomised controlled trial with embedded process evaluation in India, Nepal, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. Find out more about the HIPCARE Study: kadoorie.octru.ox.ac.uk/hipcare
Dr En Lin Goh will discuss ‘Service availability and readiness for hip fracture care in low- and middle-income countries in South and Southeast Asia’.

His research interest is in hip fracture care and his DPhil looks to investigate risk factors linked to the development of complications in hip fractures.
