BACKGROUND in older patients, there is a high risk of hospital readmission within the first year after surgery for hip fracture, due to complications following treatment or to the evolution of prior comorbid conditions. OBJECTIVES to identify factors associated with readmissions related to the index surgical stay. DESIGN retrospective cohort study. SETTING administrative claims databases. SUBJECTS patients over 75 surgically treated for hip fracture in Paris area. METHODS we analysed…

Readmission of older patients after hospital discharge for hip fracture: a multilevel approach
TLDR
Hospitals have complex structures that reflect in the quality of care and future studies may include these complexities and the severity of the patients in the analysis of the data, also considering the correlation between readmission and mortality to reduce biases.
Mortality and readmission following hip fracture surgery: a retrospective study comparing conventional and fast-track care
TLDR
There was insufficient evidence to show an impact of fast-track care on mortality and readmission, and length of stay and time to surgery were decreased.
Predictors of Readmission in Orthopaedic Trauma Surgery
TLDR
Older patients and patients with greater comorbidity are more likely to be readmitted within 30 days of surgery for musculoskeletal trauma, whether for a surgical adverse event or another reason.
Effectiveness of a Day Rehabilitation Program in Improving Functional Outcome and Reducing Mortality and Readmission of Elderly Patients With Fragility Hip Fractures
TLDR
This study shows that postoperative geriatric hip fracture patients definitely can benefit from rehabilitation service offered by Geriatric Day Hospital in terms of functional and cognitive outcomes.
Defining readmissions among patients undergoing open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) in claims database analyses
TLDR
The accuracy of identifying true admissions was improved by defining readmissions as occurring after the day of discharge and by accounting for rehabilitation, aftercare, and transfer.
How High-Risk Comorbidities Co-Occur in Readmitted Patients With Hip Fracture: Big Data Visual Analytical Approach
TLDR
An integrated analysis of risk, co-occurrence, and patient subgroups enabled the inference of processes that precipitate readmission, leading to a comorbidity exacerbation risk model for readmission after HFx.
Elderly readmission and death after discharge from treatment of hip fracture, occurred in public hospitals from 2008 to 2010, Rio de Janeiro.
TLDR
There is an excess risk of readmission and hospitalization of the study population compared with the elderly population hospitalized in the public hospitals of the city, and many of these outcomes can be prevented from actions recommended in the National Policy for the Elderly Health.
Reasons for readmission to hospital after hip fracture: Implications for occupational therapy
TLDR
Rates of readmission to hospital are high after hip fracture, and falls are the single most common reason for readmission, and interventions provided by occupational therapists should emphasise and incorporate evidence-based falls prevention strategies.
Mortality, readmission, and reoperation after hip fracture in nonagenarians
TLDR
The overall 2- years mortality rate among nonagenarians in Taiwan was around 45%, the 2-years reoperation rate was around 9% and the 90-days medical complication rate wasAround 24%.
Femoral fracture rates after discharge from the hospital to the community

  • 2013
TLDR
The first weeks at home after discharge from the hospital are associated with an increased risk for femoral fractures, according to routine data of more than 690,000 German people aged 65 years and older with more than 2 million hospital discharges.

Predictors of hospital readmission in a cohort of 236 elderly discharged after surgical repair of hip fracture: one-year follow-up
TLDR
Subgroups of patients with an elevated risk of rehospitalization after hip fracture may be the target for strategies to reduce the burden of excessive hospital use and improve overall outcomes.
Hospital readmission of persons with hip fracture following medical rehabilitation.
Association of timing of surgery for hip fracture and patient outcomes.
TLDR
Early surgery was not associated with improved function or mortality, but it was associated with reduced pain and LOS and probably major complications among patients medically stable at admission, and patients with hip fracture who are medically stable should receive early surgery when possible.
The relationship between postoperative complications and outcomes after hip fracture surgery.
TLDR
Postoperative complications are common after surgery for hip fractures and result in significantly longer hospitalisation periods and significant predictors for such complications include being of female gender and pre-fracture mobility.
Outcomes for Older Patients With Hip Fractures: The Impact of Orthopedic and Geriatric Medicine Cocare
TLDR
Orthopedic-geriatric cocare for the older patients with HF was associated with significant reductions in morbidity and mortality, and increases in optimal postoperative care.
The relationship between postoperative complications and outcomes after hip fracture surgery.
TLDR
Postoperative complications are common after surgery for hip fractures and result in significantly longer hospitalisation periods, and significant predictors for such complications include being of female gender and pre-fracture mobility.
[Mortality after hip fracture: a three year follow-up study].
TLDR
Patients with hip fracture showed a higher mortality than those without hip fracture after 3 years of follow-up, and age, age, heart failure, neoplasia, dementia, and hip fracture were independently associated with mortality after3 years of following-up.
Increased mortality in patients with a hip fracture-effect of pre-morbid conditions and post-fracture complications
TLDR
Patients with a hip fracture have a pronounced excess mortality risk and the main cause was linked to the trauma that caused the fracture event and not to pre-existing co-morbidity.
Predictors of mortality after hip fracture: a 10-year prospective study.
TLDR
The increased mortality risk was highest during the first year after hip fracture and returned to the risk of the standard population 3 years postoperatively, and Males who are 65 to 84 years had the highest mortality risk.
Effect of comorbidities and postoperative complications on mortality after hip fracture in elderly people: prospective observational cohort study
TLDR
In elderly people with hip fracture, the presence of three or more comorbidities is the strongest preoperative risk factor and lead to increased mortality.
