Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of various factors on the prognosis of elderly patients with hip fractures to make it easier for physicians and patients to choose the type of surgical or non-surgical treatment with more accurate prognosis.
Methods and materials used: This epidemiological study was performed on patients older than 65 years who presented with a diagnosis of hip fracture within one year. Independent variables including sex, age of the patient, concomitant diseases, time elapsed from fracture to surgery and type of anesthesia were evaluated for Bartel score, postoperative mortality and type of treatment.
Results: The mean age of the study population (163 people) was 7.7 ± 78.7- with the age range of 65-97 which included 91 women (55.8%) and 72 men (44.2%). The highest number of our patients was in the age range of 76 to 85 years (48%). The number of deaths in patients who did not undergo surgery in the first month after the fracture was 3 (۱ 11.5) in femoral neck fractures and 3 (۵ 11.5) in intracentric fractures. In the next eleven months of follow-up, Mir had one patient (۸ 3.8) in femoral neck fractures and three patients (11.5 ٪) in intracentric fractures.
Conclusion: In this study, the age of patients was an important determinant of mortality, so that mortality has increased with age, but the type of gender is not effective in increasing mortality.
