Factors affecting postoperative mortality in patients older than 65 years undergoing surgery for hip fracture.
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to determine the factors affecting postoperative mortality in patients older than 65 years of age undergoing surgery for hip fracture. METHODS A total of 308 patients (219 males and 89 females) were included into the study. Spinal-epidural anaesthesia was administered in 203 patients and general anaesthesia in 105 patients. In the evaluation of the patient...
متن کاملFactors That Affect Mortality Rates in Elderly Hip Fracture Patients
Introduction: Hip fractures are primarily seen in elderly patients. Older age and accompanying diseases leads to negative outcomes in this patient group. More than 320,000 cases of hip fractures are diagnosed every year in the U.S.A and there is a mortality rate of 14-36% in the first year after surgery. The aim of our research was to study factors that affect mortality. Methods: For this purpo...
متن کاملPredicting 30-day mortality after hip fracture surgery
OBJECTIVES The National Hip Fracture Database (NHFD) publishes hospital-level risk-adjusted mortality rates following hip fracture surgery in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The performance of the risk model used by the NHFD was compared with the widely-used Nottingham Hip Fracture Score. METHODS Data from 94 hospitals on patients aged 60 to 110 who had hip fracture surgery between May 2...
متن کاملEarly surgery for patients with a fracture of the hip decreases 30-day mortality.
There has been extensive discussion about the effect of delay to surgery on mortality in patients sustaining a fracture of the hip. Despite the low level of evidence provided by many studies, a consensus has been accepted that delay of > 48 hours is detrimental to survival. The aim of this prospective observational study was to determine if early surgery confers a survival benefit at 30 days. B...
متن کاملA Comprehensive Analysis of the Causes and Predictors of 30-Day Mortality Following Hip Fracture Surgery
BACKGROUND A fracture neck of femur is the leading cause of injury-related mortality in the elderly population. The 30-day mortality figure is a well utilised marker of clinical outcome following a fracture neck of femur. Current studies fail to analyse all patient demographic, biochemical and comorbid parameters associated with increased 30-day mortality. We aimed to assess medical risk factor...
