ABSTRACT

Introduction: Hip fracture are an important cause of morbidity and mortality in old patients. The one-year mortality after a hip fracture increase between 14 to 47%. The main objective was to analyze the risk factors associated with mortality after a hip fracture in a low-income population. Material and methods: Retrospective study of patients with traumatic hip fracture in a four-year period in an orthopedic training hospital. The data collected was age, gender, Charlson comorbidity index (CCI), delay time in days for surgery, duration in hours for surgical procedure, transfusion. Two groups were analyzed, alive patients and deceased patients. Results: A total of 96 patients with traumatic hip fracture was analyzed. Mortality rate in the first year was pf 16.6%, and at the end of the follow-up was 32.2%. The alive patients showed better values of CCI with a value of 4.2 ± 1.1 versus 5.2 ± 1.0 in the deceased patients. When compared delay time for surgery and duration of surgical procedure did not observe significant difference between patients alive and deceased. Conclusion: The delay time of surgery did not affect the mortality after a traumatic hip fracture in old patients with economic low-income.
