Abstract
Hip fractures are common orthopedic injuries that have significant impacts on patients and healthcare systems. Previous studies have shown varying outcomes for hip fracture management in different settings, with diverse postoperative outcomes and complications. While teaching hospital settings have been investigated, no studies have specifically examined hip fracture outcomes in teaching hospitals in Jordan or the broader Middle East region. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate this important outcome. A cohort comprising 1268 patients who underwent hip fracture fixation from 2017 to 2020 was analyzed for nine distinct outcomes. These outcomes encompassed time to surgery, ICU admissions, perioperative hemoglobin levels, length of hospital stay, readmission rates, revision procedures, and mortality rates at three time points: in-hospital, at 6-months, and at 1-year post-surgery. The analysis of 1268 patients (616 in teaching hospitals, 652 in non-teaching hospitals) showed shorter mean time to surgery in teaching hospitals (2.2 days vs. 3.6 days, p < 0.01), higher ICU admissions (17% vs. 2.6%, p < 0.01), and more postoperative blood transfusions (40.3% vs. 12.1%, p < 0.01). In-hospital mortality rates were similar between groups (2.4% vs. 2.1%, p = 0.72), as were rates at 6-months (3.1% vs. 3.5%, p = 0.65) and 1-year post-surgery (3.7% vs. 3.7%, p = 0.96). Geriatric hip fracture patients in teaching hospitals have shorter surgery times, more ICU admissions, and higher postoperative blood transfusion rates. However, there are no significant differences in readmission rates, hospital stays, or mortality rates at various intervals.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postoperative delirium is an acute neurocognitive complication that can have adverse effects on outcomes of geriatric patients after undergoing hip fracture surgery. The objective of this study was to examine the efficacy of preoperative steroids in preventing postoperative delirium after hip fracture surgery. METHODS DATA SOURCES A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed using PubMed, SPORTDiscus, CINAHL, MEDLINE, and Web of Science from database inception until September 28, 2023. STUDY SELECTION Inclusion criteria were randomized controlled trials of patients who underwent surgical intervention for hip fracture, were examined for postoperative delirium, and used preoperative steroids. DATA EXTRACTION Data included the risk of postoperative delirium, postoperative all-cause infection, and postoperative hyperglycemia. Articles were graded via the Cochrane Collaboration's tool. DATA SYNTHESIS Statistical analysis included a random-effects binary model with relative risk, 95% confidence intervals along with a defined "number needed to treat" threshold (number needed to treat). RESULTS Four randomized controlled trials were included from 128 articles initially retrieved. Patients (n = 416; average age: 82.2 ± 2.2 years) underwent surgical intervention for hip fracture after receiving either preoperative steroids (n = 209) or control interventions (n = 207). There was a statistically significant decrease in the incidence of postoperative delirium among patients who received preoperative steroids (12.9%; 27 cases) as compared with patients who received control interventions (26.7%; 55 cases) after hip fracture surgery ( P < 0.001; RR: 0.84). The absolute risk difference was 13.8%, and the number needed to treat was 7.2 patients. There was no statistically significant difference in the risk of postoperative all-cause infection among patients who received preoperative steroids as compared with patients who received normal saline as placebo after hip fracture surgery ( P = 0.850; RR: 0.96). CONCLUSIONS The utilization of preoperative steroids seems to decrease the risk of postoperative delirium after hip fracture surgery in elderly adults. Furthermore, this decreased risk of postoperative delirium was not associated with a significant increase in postoperative infection, indicating possible safety of preoperative steroid administration. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level II. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
Background Studies have shown an increased risk of morbidity in elderly patients suffering rib fractures from blunt trauma. The association between frailty and rib fractures on adverse outcomes is still ill-defined. In the current investigation, we sought to delineate the association between frailty, measured using the Orthopedic Frailty Score (OFS), and outcomes in geriatric patients with isolated rib fractures. Methods All geriatric (aged 65 years or older) patients registered in the 2013-2019 Trauma Quality Improvement database with a conservatively managed isolated rib fracture were considered for inclusion. An isolated rib fracture was defined as the presence of ≥1 rib fracture, a thorax Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) between 1 and 5, an AIS ≤1 in all other regions, as well as the absence of pneumothorax, hemothorax, or pulmonary contusion. Based on patients' OFS, patients were classified as non-frail (OFS 0), pre-frail (OFS 1), or frail (OFS ≥2). The prevalence ratio (PR) of composite complications, in-hospital mortality, failure-to-rescue (FTR), and intensive care unit (ICU) admission between the OFS groups was determined using Poisson regression models to adjust for potential confounding. Results A total of 65 375 patients met the study's inclusion criteria of whom 60% were non-frail, 29% were pre-frail, and 11% were frail. There was a stepwise increased risk of complications, in-hospital mortality, and FTR from non-frail to pre-frail and frail. Compared with non-frail patients, frail patients exhibited a 87% increased risk of in-hospital mortality [adjusted PR (95% CI): 1.87 (1.52-2.31), p<0.001], a 44% increased risk of complications [adjusted PR (95% CI): 1.44 (1.23-1.67), p<0.001], a doubling in the risk of FTR [adjusted PR (95% CI): 2.08 (1.45-2.98), p<0.001], and a 17% increased risk of ICU admission [adjusted PR (95% CI): 1.17 (1.11-1.23), p<0.001]. Conclusion There is a strong association between frailty, measured using the OFS, and adverse outcomes in geriatric patients managed conservatively for rib fractures.

Abstract
PURPOSE Intertrochanteric fractures undergoing proximal femoral nail antirotation (PFNA) surgery are associated with significant hidden blood loss. This study aimed to explore whether intramedullary administration of tranexamic acid (TXA) can reduce bleeding in PFNA surgery for intertrochanteric fractures in elderly individuals. METHODS A randomized controlled trial was conducted from January 2019 to December 2022. Patients aged over 60 years with intertrochanteric fractures who underwent intramedullary fixation surgery with PFNA were eligible for inclusion and grouped according to random numbers. A total of 249 patients were initially enrolled, of which 83 were randomly allocated to the TXA group and 82 were allocated to the saline group. The TXA group received intramedullary perfusion of TXA after the bone marrow was reamed. The primary outcomes were total peri-operative blood loss and post-operative transfusion rate. The occurrence of adverse events was also recorded. Continuous data was analyzed by unpaired t-test or Mann-Whitney U test, and categorical data was analyzed by Pearson Chi-square test. RESULTS The total peri-operative blood loss (mL) in the TXA group was significantly lower than that in the saline group (577.23 ± 358.02 vs. 716.89 ± 420.30, p = 0.031). The post-operative transfusion rate was 30.67 % in the TXA group and 47.95 % in the saline group (p = 0.031). The extent of post-operative deep venous thrombosis and the 3-month mortality rate were similar between the 2 groups. CONCLUSION We observed that intramedullary administration of TXA in PFNA surgery for intertrochanteric fractures in elderly individuals resulted in less peri-operative blood loss and decreased transfusion rate, without any adverse effects, and is, thus, recommended.

Australas J Ageing 2023; 42:736-741. [PMID: 37708340 DOI: 10.1111/ajag.13239] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2023] [Revised: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 08/15/2023] [Indexed: 09/16/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The Delirium Reduction by Analgesia Management-Hip Fracture (DRAM-HF) model of care, which incorporated a multicomponent intervention focussing on perioperative analgesia and medication optimisation, was associated with reduced Day 3 postoperative delirium (POD) amongst hip fracture patients. We investigated whether this effect was seen at 120 days postoperatively. METHODS We assessed 120-day outcomes in all patients who were included in the DRAM-HF study, by telephone, supplemented by electronic medical records, to include death (primary outcome), residential aged care facility (RACF) residence, patient/carer-reported frailty, hospital readmission and new dementia diagnosis. RESULTS Amongst 300 patients (mean age 81.1, 70% female, none lost to follow-up), by 120 days, 8% (n = 24) had died; 25% of survivors (n = 68/276) were RACF residents. Twenty-two per cent were readmitted (n = 61/281). A new dementia diagnosis was reported by 6% (n = 17/281). Intervention status in the DRAM-HF trial (intervention/control) was not associated with death by 120 days (OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.36-1.93, p = 0.67) or other outcomes assessed. POD was independently associated with 120-day death (aOR 3.3, 95% CI 1.2-9.2, p = 0.02), RACF residence (aOR 2.2, 95% CI 1.1-4.7, p = 0.03) and patient/carer-reported frailty (aOR 5.6, 95% CI 1.0-30.7, p = 0.05), but not readmission (p = 0.21) or new diagnosis of dementia (p = 0.08). CONCLUSIONS In this cohort, while the DRAM-HF bundle of care did not influence 120-day outcomes, patients who experienced POD had poorer clinical outcomes 120-day postfracture. Given that delirium was associated with death, RACF residence and frailty, models of care which have the potential to reduce POD may have benefits beyond the acute admission, and further investigation is needed.

Abstract
Primary arthroplasty for fractures of the femoral neck is a very common procedure and even the gold standard for the geriatric patient. In contrast, primary arthroplasty for perigenicular fractures is a rare event. On the other hand, it can be a therapeutic option, especially for geriatric patients with prior osteoarthritis or complex fractures and severe osteoporosis.The operative procedure can be complex and requires experience in primary and revision arthroplasty as well as suitable implants and good preoperative planning.There are case series reporting primary arthroplasty in a total of approximately 200 cases of both distal femoral and proximal tibial fractures. Complication rates are between 0 and 90% and mostly concern wound healing problems and infections. From a functional point of view, predominantly good results and a range of motion of 100° can be achieved.Primary arthroplasty can be a therapeutic option for selected cases of perigenicular fractures and gives good functional results. The most frequent complications are wound healing problems and infections.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Hip fracture is a prevalent condition with a significant death rate among the elderly. We sought to develop a nomogram-based survival prediction model for older patients with hip fracture. DESIGN A retrospective case-control study. SETTING The data from Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care III (MIMIC-III V.1.4). PARTICIPANTS The clinical features of elderly patients with hip fracture, including basic information, comorbidities, severity score, laboratory tests and therapy, were filtered out based on the MIMIC-III V.1.4. METHODS AND MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES All patients included in the study were from critical care and randomly divided into training and validation sets (7:3). On the basis of retrieved data, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression and multiple logistic regression analysis were used to identify independent predictive variables of 1-year mortality, and then constructed a risk prediction nomogram. The predictive values of the nomogram model were evaluated by the concordance indexes (C-indexes), receiver operating characteristic curve, decision curve analysis (DCA) and calibration curve. RESULTS A total of 341 elderly patients with hip fracture were included in this study; 121 cases died within 1 year. After LASSO regression and multiple logistic regression analysis, a novel nomogram contained the predictive variables of age, weight, the proportion of lymphocyte count, liver disease, malignant tumour and congestive heart failure. The constructed model proved satisfactory discrimination with C-indexes of 0.738 (95% CI 0.674 to 0.802) in the training set and 0.713 (95% CI 0.608 to 0.819) in the validation set. The calibration curve shows a good degree of fitting between the predicted and observed probabilities and the DCA confirms the model's clinical practicability. CONCLUSIONS The novel prediction model provides personalised predictions for 1-year mortality in elderly patients with hip fractures. Compared with other hip fracture models, our nomogram is particularly suitable for predicting long-term mortality in critical patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate the adoption of treatment patterns for hip fractures combined with minimally invasive surgical treatment of fragility fractures of the pelvis in older individuals and reviewed and analysed the treatment efficacy and feasibility. METHODS AND DATA From September 2017 to February 2021, 135 older individuals with fragility fractures of the pelvis were admitted to our hospital. We retrospectively analysed patients who received surgical or conservative treatments. The general preoperative data, including sex, age, disease duration, cause of injury, AO/OTA type, BMI, bone mineral density, time from injury to admission, time from injury to surgery, ASA classification, number of underlying diseases, mean bed rest, clinical fracture healing, VAS score and Majeed functional score, were recorded. RESULTS The mean follow-up time for all 135 patients was 10.5 ± 3.6 months. Among 135 patients, 95 survived, and 11 and 29 patients passed after the surgical (mortality rate = 17.74%) and conservative (mortality rate = 39.73%) treatments, respectively. The average follow-up time for the 95 surviving patients was 14.5 ± 1.8 months. The Majeed and VAS scores for the operation group were significantly better than those of the conservative group. The bed rest and fracture healing times were also shorter in the surgical treatment group than in the conservative group. CONCLUSION The use of a minimally invasive surgical treatment combined with the geriatric hip fracture treatment model to treat fragility fractures of the pelvis improved the quality of life in older patients.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Frailty fractures place a significant socioeconomic burden on the health care system. The Italian Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology (SIOT) is proceeding to fracture liaison service (FLS) model accreditation in several Italian Fracture Units (FUs), which provides a multidisciplinary approach for the management of the fragility fracture patient. INTRODUCTION Osteoporosis and the resulting fragility fractures, particularly femoral fractures, place significant socioeconomic burdens on the health care system globally. In addition, there is a general lack of awareness of osteoporosis, resulting in underestimation of the associated risks and suboptimal treatment of the disease. The fracture liaison service (FLS) represents an exemplary model of post-fracture care that involves a multidisciplinary approach to the frail patient through the collaboration of multiple specialists. The purpose of this article is to highlight the path undertaken by the Italian Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology (SIOT) for the purpose of certification of numerous FLS centers throughout Italy. METHODS SIOT is proceeding with international FLS accreditation in several Italian Fracture Units (FUs), following the creation of a model that provides specific operational and procedural steps for the management of fragility fractures throughout the country. FUs that decide to join the project and implement this model within their facility are then audited by an ACCREDIA-accredited medical certification body. RESULTS The drafted FLS model, thanks to the active involvement of a panel of experts appointed by SIOT, outlines a reference operational model that describes a fluid and articulated process that identifies the procedure of identification, description of diagnostic framing, and subsequent initiation of appropriate secondary prevention programs for fractures of individuals who have presented with a recent fragility fracture of the femur. CONCLUSION Accreditation of this prevention model will enable many facilities to take advantage of this dedicated diagnostic-therapeutic pathway for the purpose of fracture prevention and reduction of associated health and social costs.

Clinical and Demographic Characteristics of Centenarians versus Other Age Groups Over 75 Years with Hip Fractures. Clin Interv Aging 2023; 18:441-451. [PMID: 36987460 PMCID: PMC10040167 DOI: 10.2147/cia.s386563] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective The primary objective was to describe the clinical characteristics, management, and outcomes of centenarians with fragility hip fracture and compare them to other age groups. The secondary objective was to determine the variables associated with length of stay, in-hospital mortality and 30-day mortality. Materials and Methods This is a secondary analysis of the Spanish National Hip Fracture Registry. We included patients ≥75 years admitted for fragility hip fractures in 86 Spanish hospitals between 2017 and 2019, dividing the sample into four age groups. The variables studied were baseline characteristics, type of fracture, management, length of stay, in-hospital mortality and 30-day mortality. Results We included 25,938 patients (2888 were 75-79 years old; 14,762 octogenarians; 8,035 nonagenarians and 253 centenarians). Of the centenarians, 83% were women, 33% had severe dementia, 9% had severe dependency and 36% lived in residential care homes. Six out of ten had intertrochanteric fracture. Length of hospital stay was 8.6 days; in-hospital mortality was 10.3% and 30-day mortality 20.9%. Older age groups had more women, severe functional dependency, severe dementia, intertrochanteric fracture, living in care facilities and being discharged to nursing care. They had less frequent early mobilization, osteoporosis treatment and discharge to rehabilitation units. In-hospital and 30-day mortality were higher with increasing age. In centenarians, time to surgery >48 hours was independently associated with length of stay (correlation coefficient 3.99 [95% CI: 2.35-5.64; p<0.001]) and anaesthetic risk, based on an ASA score of V, was related to 30-day mortality (ASA score II [OR 0.25, 95% CI: 0.09-0.70; p=0.009] and ASA score III [OR 0.43, 95% CI: 0.19-0.96; p=0.039]). Conclusion Centenarians had different clinical characteristics, management and outcomes. Although centenarians had worse outcomes, nearly 4 out of 5 centenarians were alive one month after surgery.

Abstract
AIM Nutrition status may affect bone metabolism and regeneration in the elderly. However, few studies reported a sensitive nutrition indicator or evaluation tool for geriatric hip fractures. This study aimed to explore if prealbumin (PAB), a critical nutrition-related protein, is related to the prognosis of hip fractures. METHODS Patients with hip fractures who met the inclusion criteria were included in our study. Geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) were calculated. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to reduce the influence of confounding factors and ROC curves were conducted to explore the optimal cutoff points of PAB and to compare the prognostic value between GNRI, PNI, and PAB. Then Cox and Logistics analyses were performed to identify the relation between PAB and outcomes of hip fractures. RESULTS Out of the 546 patients enrolled in this study, 91 patients died within one year. After a 1:1 PSM, the patients with less than 1-year survival had significantly lower PAB (p < 0.001) than those who were still alive at one year. ROC curves showed that the PAB may sensitively predict 6-month survival (AUROC: 0.695), 1-year survival (AUROC: 0.696), and 1-year-free walking ability (AUROC: 0.642). Logistics analysis showed that low PAB may be an independent risk factor for survival and 1-year-free walking ability. CONCLUSION Low levels of PAB may be associated with poor survival and walking abilities of older patients after surgery for hip fracture.

New Prognostic Factors in Operated Extracapsular Hip Fractures: Infection and GammaTScore. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:11680. [PMID: 36141949 PMCID: PMC9517159 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph191811680] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2022] [Revised: 09/12/2022] [Accepted: 09/14/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
There is no universal postoperative classification of extracapsular hip fractures (ECFs). We wondered if infection (according to infection after fracture fixation criteria (IAFF)), immediate partial weight bearing (PWB) and/or the new GammaTScore tool could predict early cut-out. We also examined the correlation between GammaTScore and time to consolidation and studied long-term survival. This was a retrospective cohort study of low-energy complete ECFs operated with Gamma3T nailing in 2014 and fully monitoring, in patients aged over 65. Ten not distally locked cases, one late cut-out, one cut-through, one osteonecrosis and one pseudarthrosis were discarded. Patients were classified into early cut-out (7/204; 3.55%) and no early cut-out (197/204; 96.45%). There was a lower percentage of A2 fractures according to the AO Foundation/Orthopaedic Trauma Association classification (AO/OTA, 1997) in early cut-out. IAFF and only the GammaTScore reduction parameter were different for early cut-out, in opposition to immediate PWB, tip-to-apex distance (TAD) or the Baumgaertner-Fogagnolo classification. GammaTScore inversely correlated with consolidation (p < 0.01). Long-term survival time was not statistically significantly lower in the early cut-out group. Small sample of cases may limit our results. Apart from an important role of IAFF, GammaTScore would be useful for predicting consolidation, avoiding complications and reducing costs. Further studies are needed for reliability.

Abstract
PURPOSE Early hip fracture surgery in elderly patients is recognized as a positive prognostic factor. When applied as an intervention, it does not always reduce overall patient mortality. A plausible explanation for this is that not all patients equally benefit from early surgery. The purpose of the study is to investigate the effect of early surgery on mortality in patients ages 80 and older. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort of 3463 patients with hip fractures, operated upon within seven days of admission in a tertiary medical center between 2010 and 2018. Patients were divided into five groups: ages 80-84, 85-89, 90-94, 95-99, and 100 or above. Baseline characteristics were compared between groups. Mortality at one year post-operatively as a function of surgery delay was visualized for each group, using restricted spline curve analysis. RESULTS Patients with increasing age were operated on earlier, had increased co-morbidities with a higher ASA score and experienced higher mortality. Spline curve analysis in younger patients, ages 80 to 94, demonstrated an inflection point at 48 hours after admission, prior to which mortality was rising rapidly and after which it continued rising slowly. In the two oldest age cohorts, there was no increased mortality with an increasing surgical delay. CONCLUSIONS In patients ages 80-94 surgery on day one may be preferable to surgery on day two. In patients ages 95 and older, surgery time did not influence mortality. Pursuit of better patient outcomes may include prioritizing early surgery in younger patients.

Abstract
Background Geriatric hip fracture is one of the most common end-stage events in older patients with osteoporosis. We aimed to improve the original co-management process by engaging emergency physicians in the preoperative multidisciplinary management team (MDT). We evaluated this intervention in terms of reducing patient waiting time before surgery. Methods Emergency Department data and hospitalization data for patients diagnosed with geriatric hip fractures in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital (JSTH) were collected and sorted into the intervention group, for whom the MDT included emergency physicians (from January 2019 to December 2019), and the control group (from January 2017 to December 2017). The percentage of patients treated with surgery within 48 h of admission was used as the primary outcome. The secondary outcomes included the time from emergency visit to admission (hours), the time from admission to discharge (days), the percentage of patients receiving surgical treatment after admission, the rate of perioperative medical complications during hospitalization, postoperative admission to the Intensive Care Unit, and total deaths during hospitalization. Results A total of 2,152 patients were enrolled. The rate of hypertension (58.5% vs 52.1%), coronary heart disease (24.6% vs 19.9%), and cerebrovascular disease (19.4% vs 15.5%) was higher in the intervention group than in the control group. The percentage of patients receiving surgical treatment in the intervention group (98.3%) was significantly higher than in the control group (96.3%, p = 0.004). The proportion of patients receiving surgical treatment within 48 h of admission was significantly higher in the intervention group (82.4%) than in the control group (60.4%, p < 0.001). The hospital stay was significantly shorter in the intervention group compared with the control group (p < 0.001). The incidence of perioperative medical complications and mortality during hospitalization was similar in the two groups. Conclusions Involving emergency physicians in the MDT can reduce the waiting time before surgery and the hospital stay for older hip fracture patients.

Abstract
Background In elderly, hip fracture is often complicated by perioperative heart failure, related to worse prognosis. We aimed to analyze the effects of integrated management bundle incorporating with multidisciplinary measures on in-hospital outcomes and early survival in elderly hip fracture patients with perioperative heart failure. Methods In this retrospective cohort study, a total of 421 hip fracture patients aged 65 and over who developed perioperative heart failure were included. According to different perioperative management modes applied, patients were retrospectively divided into multidisciplinary management group (Group A), including 277 patients, and integrated management bundle group (Group B), including 144 patients. The B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels, complications, length of stay, and hospitalization costs were observed and compared between two groups. Overall survival was compared by Kaplan–Meier methods. Cox regression analysis was used to identify prognostic factors associated with overall survival. Results A total of 421 patients were enrolled for analysis, including 277 in Group A and 144 in Group B. BNP and CRP levels were significantly decreased compared with admission (P < 0.05). Furthermore, BNP and CRP in Group B decreased much more than those in Group A (P < 0.05). The reductions were observed in length of stay, hospitalization costs and incidence of pulmonary infection, hypoproteinemia, and acute cerebral infarction in Group B (all P < 0.05). The Kaplan–Meier plots showed significantly superior overall survival in Group B. Integrated management bundle was independent favorable prognostic factors. Conclusions The integrated management bundle incorporating with multidisciplinary measures significantly improved the therapeutic effect of perioperative heart failure, reduced inflammatory response, and yielded better hospital outcomes. It brought better survival benefits for geriatric hip fracture patients with perioperative heart failure. The results of this study can play an important role in clinical work and provide a valuable theoretical basis for selection of management model in elderly hip fracture patients with perioperative heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure is a common adverse postoperative complication in elderly patients. It is necessary to explore the risk factors of heart after the operation of elderly patients with hip fracture during hospitalization. METHODS Patients with hip fractures admitted to our hospital from January 1, 2019 to December 31 2020 were included, all the patients received internal fixation surgery. The characteristics of patients with and without postoperative heart failure were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analyses were applied to analyze the risk factors of heart failure in elderly patients with hip fracture. RESULTS A total of 283 patients with hip fractures were included, the incidence of heart failure was 12.37 %. There were significant differences in the age, hypertension, anemia hypoalbuminemia and duration of surgery between heart failure and no heart failure group(all p < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the gender, BMI, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, history of heart failure, cognitive dysfunction, type of fracture, preoperative oxygen saturation, white blood cell count, platelet count, red blood cell count, creatinine, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and estimated blood loss during surgery between heart failure and no heart failure group(all p > 0.05). Logistic regression analyses indicated that age ≥ 70y(OR2.446, 95% CI1.044 ~ 4.149), hypertension(OR2.152, 95% CI1.125 ~ 4.023), anemia(OR3.094, 95% CI1.294 ~ 5.907), hypoalbuminemia(OR2.377, 95% CI1.205 ~ 4.537), duration of surgery ≥ 120 min(OR1.683, 95% CI1.094 ~ 2.782) were the risk factors of heart failure in elderly patients with hip fracture(all p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The incidence of postoperative heart failure in elderly patients with hip fracture is relatively high, which is the result of a combination of high-risk factors. Peri-period risk assessment and prevention of related risks are the keys to a good prognosis for patients.
