When adopted, success following closed reduction is increased in younger patients with less comorbidities following use of propofol sedation. Following sedation, patients have a significantly shorter hospital stay. Increasing uptake of closed reduction of THR dislocation within the ED in suitable patients with evidence-based best practice protocols will maximise patient outcomes whilst allowing efficient resource utilisation.
