Outcomes After Hip Fracture Surgery Compared With Elective Total Hip Replacement

Abstract: In a large cohort of French patients, hip fracture surgery compared with elective THR was associated with a higher risk of in-hospital mortality after adjustment for age, sex, and measured comorbidities. Further studies are needed to define the causes for these differences.

“…Additionally, patients with fractures were more likely to be discharged to a rehabilitation facility than patients with OA. Similarly, a recent article using the National French Hospital Discharge Database performed a matched comparison of THA in patients with either OA or femoral neck fracture [13]. Their findings were very similar to those of the current study: patients with fractures were older and had more medical comorbidities than those undergoing elective THA for OA, but even after matching, there were higher complication rates in the patients with fractures than those with OA.…”

“…However, prior studies comparing cohorts of patients with femoral neck fracture and patients with OA have been limited to primarily in-hospital analyses [13,17]. Finally, only THAs were analyzed, yet differences between hip arthroplasty cohorts that include patients receiving hemiarthroplasty for fracture would likely be more profound, because there is typically surgeon selection bias for performing hemiarthroplasty over THA in more infirm and more elderly patients with femoral neck fractures [2].…”

“…In addition, the gradual increase in fees-for-services enhanced the coding quality [5]. The introduction of these systems enabled new epidemiological and/or economic studies [6][7][8][9] using these databases, with temporal follow-up of patients allowing tracing of their trajectory of care. This review investigated how the trajectory concept is defined, studied and what it achieves.…”

“…Although hip fracture surgery alone accounts for half of the in-hospital deaths that occur after orthopaedic surgery [8], it is not the only ''routine'' diagnosis that should prompt a conversation about end-of-life issues. For example, the inhospital risk of death in a patient with septic arthritis from Staphylococcus aureus, a common-enough problem, is in the range of 5% to 13% [1,17] comparable to or greater than the risk of mortality following hip fracture surgery, which has been estimated at 2% to 5% [2,8,19].…”
