ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation between preoperative N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptidogen(NT-proBNP)levels and early postoperative outcomes in elderly and critically ill pa-tients with hip fractures.Methods A total of 593 elderly and critically ill patients with hip fractures from January 2018 to April 2021 were selected,including 189 males and 404 females,aged≥65 years,BMI 12.0-35.5 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ-Ⅳ.General preoperative information,intraoperative and post-operative discharge outcomes of patients were retrospectively obtained by the electrical clinical medical record system or telephone follow-up.The receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve of preoperative plas-ma NT-proBNP and postoperative 30-day death was plotted,and the corresponding optimal cut-off value was 1 765.0 pg/ml.According to NT-proBNP values,the patients were divided into two groups:low-ratio group(NT-proBNP≤1 765.0 pg/ml,group L,n = 463)and high-ratio group(NT-proBNP>1 765.0 pg/ml,group H,n = 130).The correlation between different plasma concentrations of NT-proBNP before surgery and ICU length of stay,total length of stay,postoperative complications,and 30-day mortality rate were an-alyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results Compared with group L,age,preoperative comorbidities with coronary heart disease,arrhythmia,chronic heart failure,lung disease,and chronic kidney disease,as well as mortality within 30 days after surgery were significantly increased in group H(P<0.05).The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that high preoperative plasma NT-proBNP concentration was positive correlation with postoperative ICU length of stay(OR = 1.215,95%CI 1.073-1.375,P = 0.020)and 30-day mortality rate(OR = 32.696,95%CI 7.158-149.338,P<0.001).Conclusion High preoperative plasma NT-proBNP concentration is positive correlation with postoperative ICU hospitalization timeand 30-day mortality.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:The number of hip fracture patients with dementia is increasing with an aging population,posing challenges for surgical treatment. OBJECTIVE:To determine the effect of dementia on postoperative complications in older patients with hip fractures. METHODS:Patients aged over 60 years old with hip fractures from 2000 to 2019 at Chinese PLA General Hospital were included.Dementia patients with a preexisting diagnosis of dementia at admission were identified.Each dementia patient was matched,for age±5 years,gender,and fracture type with 10 non-dementia patients.The differences in postoperative complications were compared between the two groups,including pneumonia,respiratory failure,gastrointestinal bleeding,urinary tract infection,surgical site infection,deep venous thrombosis,pulmonary embolism,angina pectoris,arrhythmia,heart failure,myocardial infarction,stroke,and death.The impact of dementia on major complications was evaluated using multivariate conditional logistic regression. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 2 887 patients were included,of whom 125(4.3%)were dementia patients and matched with 1 243 non-dementia patients.The average age of dementia patients was(80.6±7.4)years;64.8%were female;53.6%were intertrochanteric fractures,and 46.4%were femoral neck fractures.Major complications occurred in 25(20.0%)patients with dementia and 123(9.9%)patients without dementia(P<0.01).The risk of major complications was 200.0 per 1 000 persons(95%CI,139.3-278.6)in dementia patients and 99.0 per 1 000 persons(95%CI,83.6-116.9)in non-dementia patients.Multivariate conditional logistic regression showed that a 2-fold risk of major postoperative complications after hip fracture surgery was found in dementia patients than in those without dementia(adjusted OR,2.11;95%CI,1.08-4.10).The results show that dementia is an independent risk factor for postoperative complications in elderly patients with hip fractures.Appropriate preoperative risk assessment and corresponding preventive and therapeutic measures should be given to this vulnerable population to mitigate postoperative complications.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Establishing a nomogram prediction model for postoperative pulmonary infection in hip fractures and taking early intervention measures is crucial for improving patients'quality of life and reducing medical costs. OBJECTIVE:To construct a nomogram risk prediction model of postoperative pulmonary infection in elderly patients with hip fracture,and provide theoretical basis for feasible prevention and early intervention. METHODS:Case data of 305 elderly patients with hip fractures who underwent surgical treatment at Wuxi Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine between January and October 2020(training set)were retrospectively analyzed.Using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test,receiver operating characteristic curve was utilized to analyze the diagnostic predictive efficacy of independent risk factors and joint models for postoperative pulmonary infections.Tools glmnet,pROC,and rms in R Studio software were applied to construct a nomogram model for predicting the risk of postoperative pulmonary infection in elderly patients with hip fractures,and calibration curves were further drawn to verify the predictive ability of the nomogram model.Receiver operating characteristic curves,calibration curves,and decision curves were analyzed for 133 elderly patients with hip fractures(validation set)receiving surgery at the same hospital from November 2022 to March 2023 to further predict the predictive ability of the nomogram model. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The postoperative pulmonary infection rate in elderly patients with hip fractures in this group was 9.18%(28/305).(2)Single factor and multivariate analysis,as well as forest plots,showed that preoperative hospitalization days,leukocyte count,hypersensitive C-reactive protein,and serum sodium levels were independent risk factors(P<0.05).The Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test showed good fit(χ2=4.57,P=0.803).Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was conducted on the independent risk factors and their joint models mentioned above,and the differentiation of each independent risk factor and joint model was good,with statistical significance(P<0.05).(3)The graphical calibration method,C-index,and decision curve were used to validate the nomogram prediction model.The predicted calibration curve was located between the standard curve and the acceptable line,and the predicted risk of the nomogram model was consistent with the actual risk.(4)The validation set used receiver operating characteristic curve,graphic calibration method,and decision curve to validate the prediction model.The results showed good consistency with clinical practice,indicating that the model had a good fit.The nomogram risk prediction model constructed for postoperative pulmonary infection in elderly patients with hip fractures has good predictive performance.The use of the nomogram risk prediction model can screen high-risk populations and provide a theoretical basis for early intervention.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Prevention of fractures after stroke is very important,and there are currently no models to predict the occurrence of hip fractures after stroke. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the risk factors leading to hip fracture in stroke patients and to establish a risk prediction model to visualize this risk. METHODS:A total of 439 stroke patients were selected from the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from June 2014 to June 2017,including 107 males and 332 females,with a mean age of(71.38±9.74)years.They were divided into fracture group(n=35)and non-fracture group(n=404)according to the presence or absence of hip fracture.Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine the risk factors for hip fracture after stroke.The data were randomly divided into training set(70%)and test set(30%).Nomogram predicting the risk of hip fracture occurrence was created based on the results of the multifactor analysis,and performance was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curve,calibration curves,and decision curve analysis.A web calculator was created to facilitate a more convenient interactive experience for clinicians. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Univariate analysis showed significant differences between the two groups in the number of falls,smoking,hypertension,glucocorticoids,number of strokes,Mini-Mental State Examination,visual acuity level,National Institute of Health Stroke Scale,Berg Balance Scale,and Stop Walking When Talking scale scores(P<0.05).(2)Multivariate analysis showed that number of falls[OR=17.104,95%CI(3.727-78.489),P=0.000],National Institute of Health Stroke Scale[OR=1.565,95%CI(1.193-2.052),P=0.001],Stop Walking When Talking[OR=12.080,95%CI(2.398-60.851),P=0.003]were independent risk factors positively associated with new hip fractures.Bone mineral density[OR=0.155,95%CI(0.044-0.546),P=0.012]and Berg Balance Scale[OR=0.840,95%CI(0.739-0.954),P=0.007]were negatively associated with new hip fractures after stroke.(3)The AUC values of nomogram were 0.956 and 0.907 in the training and test sets,respectively,and the calibration curves showed a high agreement between predicted and actual status with an area under the decision curve of 0.038 and 0.030,respectively.(4)These findings conclude that the number of falls,low bone mineral density,low Berg Balance Scale score,high National Institute of Health Stroke Scale score,and positive Stop Walking When Talking are risk factors for hip fracture after stroke.Based on this,a nomogram with high accuracy was developed and a web calculator(https://stroke.shinyapps.io/DynNomapp/)was created.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To identify the risk factors for 1-year death after surgery in elderly patients with hip fractures and evaluate the accuracy of the prediction model based on LASSO-logistic regression analysis.Methods:A case-control study was conducted on elderly patients (age ≥65 yr) who underwent surgical treatment for hip fractures in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January to December 2019. Patients were divided into death group and survival group according to their survival status at 1-year after surgery. General data and preoperative laboratory indicators were obtained. The variables were selected by utilizing LASSO regression and incorporated into multivariate logistic regression analysis to identify the risk factors for 1-year death after surgery in elderly patients with hip fractures. Then a prediction model was established based on the results and evaluated.Results:There were 63 patients in death group and 564 in survival group. The results of LASSO regression and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, preoperative cognitive dysfunction, Chalson comorbidity index ≥3 points and preoperative serum prealbumin level were the independent risk factors for 1-year death after surgery in elderly patients with hip fractures ( P<0.05). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the prediction model was 0.788 (95% confidence interval [0.731-0.846]), with the sensitivity and specificity of 76.2% and 68.6% respectively. The average absolute error of the calibration curve was 0.007. The results of Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test showed that there was no significant difference between the predicted value and actual observed value ( χ2=5.065, P=0.751). Decision curve analysis showed that patients had a high net benefit rate when the threshold probability range was 0-0.7. Conclusions:Age, preoperative cognitive dysfunction, Chalson comorbidity index ≥3 points and preoperative serum prealbumin level are the independent risk factors for 1-year death after surgery in elderly patients with hip fractures, and the prediction model developed based on LASSO-logistic regression has high accuracy.

ABSTRACT

Objectives@#Existing standards of care recommend operative management for fragility fractures of the hip. Early intervention has been associated with lower incidence of morbidity and mortality. A lack of consensus remains in the Philippines however, regarding timing of surgery. We sought to determine the effects of surgical timing on in-hospital complications among Filipino patients with fragility hip fractures.@*Methods@#All patients admitted for fragility hip fractures in a single tertiary-care facility from 2014-2016 were analyzed retrospectively. Subjects treated within 72 hours were grouped under “early intervention,” while those managed beyond were designated “delayed intervention.” Primary outcomes were complications during admission, while secondary outcome was length of hospital stay. A total of 96 patients met our inclusion criteria, of which 41 (42.71%) underwent early intervention. Baseline characteristics for both groups were comparable.@*Results@#A significantly lower incidence of pressure ulcers (2.4% for ≤72hours vs 45.5%; p=<0.0001), pneumonia (7.32% vs 47.27%; p=<0.0001), and urinary tract infection (4.88% vs 40%; p=<0.0001), as well as shorter hospital stay (mean: 8.85 days±5.4 vs 14.6 days±13.3; p=0.01) were seen in the early intervention group. More cases of documented deep vein thrombosis were recorded in the delayed intervention group (83.3% versus 16.6%), as was the only case of in-hospital mortality. @*Conclusion@#Early intervention showed a significantly lower incidence of in-hospital complications among patients with fragility fractures of the hip, suggesting that surgery within 72 hours may lead to better outcomes by helping to reduce the incidence of pressure sores, pneumonia, and urinary tract infection among Filipinos with hip fractures, while reducing length of admission.

ABSTRACT

Abstract Background: Pain management in hip fracture patients is of great importance for reducing postoperative morbidity and mortality. Multimodal techniques, including peripheral nerve blocks, are preferred for postoperative analgesia. Older-old hip fracture patients with high ASA scores are highly sensitive to the side effects of NSAIDs and opioids. Our aim was to investigate the effectiveness of the recently popularized Supra-Inguinal Fascia Iliaca Block (SIFIB) in this population. Methods: Forty-one ASA III-IV patients who underwent SIFIB + PCA (G-SIFIB) or PCA alone (Group Control: GC) after general anesthesia were evaluated retrospectively. In addition to 24-hour opioid consumption, Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scores, opioid-related side effects, block-related complications, and length of hospital stay were compared. Results: Twenty-two patients in G-SIFIB and 19 patients in GC were evaluated. The postoperative 24-hour opioid consumption was lower in G-SIFIB than in GC (p < 0.001). There was a statistically significant reduction in VAS scores at the postoperative 1st, 3rd, and 6th hours at rest (p < 0.001) and during movement (p < 0.001 for the 1st and 3rd hours, and p = 0.02 for the 6th hour) in G-SIFIB compared to GC. There was no difference in pain scores at the 12th and 24th hours postoperatively. While there was no difference between the groups in terms of other side effects, respiratory depression was significantly higher in GC than in G-SIFIB (p = 0.01). Conclusion: The SIFIB technique has a significant opioid-sparing effect and thus reduces opioid-related side effects in the first 24 hours after hip fracture surgery in older-old patients.

ABSTRACT

Introducción: Las fracturas intertrocantéricas del extremo proximal del fémur constituyen el grupo nosológico con mayor morbilidad y mortalidad de las lesiones traumáticas del esqueleto. Objetivo: Evaluar la reducción, la colocación del implante y el tiempo de consolidación. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, longitudinal y prospectivo de 114 pacientes con diagnóstico de fracturas del extremo proximal del fémur tratadas con clavo femoral proximal, y un seguimiento posoperatorio de un año. Resultados: Se alcanzó un resultado clínico funcional de excelente a bueno en el 82,4 % de los casos. Se evidenciaron signos radiológicos de consolidación en un promedio de 4,2 meses en la mayor parte de la muestra. Conclusiones: La pérdida de la fijación constituyó la complicación más frecuente; por tanto, se considera que el enclavado femoral proximal ofrece buenos resultados en el tratamiento de fracturas intertrocantéricas inestables del fémur.


Introduction: Intertrochanteric fractures of the proximal end of the femur constitute the nosological group with the highest morbidity and mortality of traumatic skeletal injuries. Objective: To evaluate reduction, implant placement and consolidation time. Methods: A descriptive, longitudinal and prospective study was carried out in 114 patients with diagnosis of fractures of the proximal end of the femur treated with proximal femoral nailing, and a one-year postoperative follow-up. Results: A functional clinical result from excellent to good was achieved in 82.4% of the cases. Radiological signs of consolidation were evidenced in an average of 4.2 months in most of the sample. Conclusions: Loss of fixation was the most frequent complication; therefore, proximal femoral nailing is considered to offer good results in the treatment of unstable intertrochanteric fractures of the femur.

ABSTRACT

Background & objectives: Calcium and vitamin D, separately or in combination are usually prescribed to prevent fragility fractures in elderly population. However, there are conflicting results regarding the ideal dosage and overall efficacy obtained from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) conducted in the past. The objective of this study was to assess the fracture risk with the administration of calcium or vitamin D alone or in combination in elderly population (>60 yr). Methods: PubMed, Cochrane and Embase databases were searched to identify the studies from inception to February 2021 with keywords, ‘vitamin D’, ‘calcium’ and ‘fracture’ to identify RCTs. The trials with comparing vitamin D, calcium or combination with either no medication or placebo were included for final analyses. The data were extracted and the study quality was assessed by two reviewers. The principal outcome measure was fractures around hip joint and secondary outcomes assessed were vertebral and any other fracture. Results: Eighteen RCTs were considered for the final analysis. Neither calcium nor vitamin D supplementation was associated with risk of fractures around hip joint [risk ratio (RR) 1.56; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.91 to 2.69, I2=28%; P=0.11]. In addition, the combined administration of calcium and vitamin D was also not associated with fractures around the hip joint in comparison to either no treatment or placebo. The incidence of vertebral (RR 0.95; 95% CI, 0.82 to 1.10, I2=0%; P=0.49) or any other fracture (RR 0.83; 95% CI 0.65 to 1.06, I2=0%; P=0.14) was not significantly associated with the administration of calcium and vitamin D either individually or in combination. Further subgroup analysis of the results did not vary with the dosage of calcium or vitamin D, dietary calcium intake sex, or serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels. Interpretation & conclusions: The present meta-analysis of RCTs on calcium, vitamin D or a combination of the two in comparison to no treatment or placebo did not support the routine administration protocol of calcium and vitamin D either alone or in combination to lower the risk of fractures in elderly population.

ABSTRACT

@#Introduction: This study aimed to determine on-admission and perioperative factors predicting six-month mortality and functional recovery in Vietnamese patients with hip fracture. Materials and methods: Between April 2020 and July 2021, 118 patients participated in this prospective study. Patients’ data were collected from medical records. Harris hip score (HHS) was used to evaluate the functional recovery six months after fractures. The obtained data were analysed using a univariate and multivariate model. Results: The mean age of the participants was 79.5±9.4 years and 68.6% of the patients were female. The six-month mortality rate was 5.9% and independently associated with age (odds ratio (OR): 3.512, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.538 – 8.019; P<0.001, patients aged >80 years vs those aged ≤80 years) and hypoproteinemia (OR: 2.859, 95% CI: 1.001 – 8.166, P=0.049). Among 111 survivors there were 66 (59.5%) of patients with a good functional recovery. Patients aged >80 years had a higher risk of poor functional outcome (OR: 3.167, 95% CI: 1.386 – 7.235, P: 0.006) compared to those aged ≤ 80 years. No significant correlations between other clinical (gender, body mass index, comorbidities, type of fractures or surgery, time until surgery) or laboratory parameters (anaemia, hyperglycemia, marked elevation of C reactive protein level, electrolyte abnormalities, elevated urea) and mortality or functional outcome were found. Conclusion: Advanced age is the most important factor affecting both mortality and functional outcome while hypoproteinemia is associated with a higher risk of mortality in elderly patients with hip fractures.

ABSTRACT

@#Fracture-dislocations of the hip is the result of high-energy trauma which necessitates urgent reduction. Closed reduction is usually attempted first and if failed, open reduction is indicated and may require more than one surgical approach. However, there is also the option of managing it with vector traction. This case report details the treatment of a middle-aged gentleman who sustained a left hip central dislocation which was gradually reduced with vector traction prior to surgery and in doing so, diminished the risk of him developing several potentially debilitating complications known to be associated with surgical fixation of such injuries.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE@#Hip fractures among elderly patients are surgical emergencies. During COVID-19 pandemic time, many such patients could not be operated at early time because of the limitation of the medical resources, the risk of infection and redirection of medical attention to a severe infective health problem.@*METHODS@#A search of electronic databases (PubMed, Medline, CINAHL, EMBASE and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials) with the keywords "COVID", "COVID-19″, "SARS-COV-2", "Corona", "pandemic", "hip fracture", "trochanteric fracture" and "neck femur fracture" revealed 64 studies evaluating treatment of hip fracture in elderly patients during COVID-19 pandemic time. The 30-day mortality rate, inpatient mortality rate, critical care/special care need, readmission rate and complications rate in both groups were evaluated. Data were analyzed using Review Manager (RevMan) V.5.3.@*RESULTS@#After screening, 7 studies were identified that described the mortality and morbidity in hip fractures in both COVID-19 infected (COVID-19 +) and non-infected (COVID-19 -) patients. There were significantly increased risks of 30-day mortality (32.23% COVID-19 + death vs. 8.85% COVID-19 - death) and inpatient mortality (29.33% vs. 2.62%) among COVID-19 + patients with odds ratio (OR) of 4.84 (95% CI: 3.13 - 7.47, p < 0.001) and 15.12 (95% CI: 6.12 - 37.37, p < 0.001), respectively. The COVID-19 + patients needed more critical care admission (OR = 5.08, 95% CI: 1.49 - 17.30, p < 0.009) and they remain admitted for a longer time in hospital (mean difference = 3.6, 95% CI: 1.74 - 5.45, p < 0.001); but there was no difference in readmission rate between these 2 groups. The risks of overall complications (OR = 17.22), development of pneumonia (OR = 22.25), and acute respiratory distress syndrome/acute respiratory failure (OR = 32.96) were significantly high among COVID-19 + patients compared to COVID-19 - patients.@*CONCLUSIONS@#There are increased risks of the 30-day mortality, inpatient mortality and critical care admission among hip fracture patients who are COVID-19 +. The chances of developing pneumonia and acute respiratory failure are more in COVID-19 + patients than in COVID-19 ‒ patients.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE@#Hip fractures in elderly have a high mortality. However, there is limited literature on the excess mortality seen in hip fractures compared to the normal population. The purpose of this study was to compare the mortality of hip fractures with that of age and gender matched Indian population.@*METHODS@#There are 283 patients with hip fractures aged above 50 years admitted at single centre prospectively enrolled in this study. Patients were followed up for 1 year and the follow-up record was available for 279 patients. Mortality was assessed during the follow-up from chart review and/or by telephonic interview. One-year mortality of Indian population was obtained from public databases. Standardized mortality ratio (SMR) (observed mortality divided by expected mortality) was calculated. Kaplan-Meir analysis was used.@*RESULTS@#The overall 1-year mortality was 19.0% (53/279). Mortality increased with age (p < 0.001) and the highest mortality was seen in those above 80 years (aged 50 - 59 years: 5.0%, aged 60 - 69 years: 19.7%, aged 70 - 79 years: 15.8%, and aged over 80 years: 33.3%). Expected mortality of Indian population of similar age and gender profile was 3.7%, giving a SMR of 5.5. SMR for different age quintiles were: 3.9 (aged 50 - 59 years), 6.6 (aged 60 - 69 years), 2.2 (aged 70 - 79 years); and 2.0 (aged over 80 years). SMR in males and females were 5.7 and 5.3, respectively.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Indian patients sustaining hip fractures were about 5 times more likely to die than the general population. Although mortality rates increased with age, the highest excess mortality was seen in relatively younger patients. Hip fracture mortality was even higher than that of myocardial infarction, breast cancer, and cervical cancer.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the health related quality of life (HRQoL) of hip fracture patients after surgery and build a prediction model to identify high-risk patients with HRQoL decline.Methods:A cross-sectional research method was applied to select 135 patients with unilateral hip fractures from January 2020 to June 2021 in Hainan Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine using convenience sampling as the study population. HRQoL was self-assessed using the European Five-Dimensional Health Scale (EQ-5D).Logistic regression models were used to identify risk factors for HRQoL decline. The columnar plots′ predictive accuracy and net clinical benefit were assessed using calibration curves, ROC curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA).Results:The final number of patients with valid follow-up was 122.At 6 and 12 months postoperatively, the EQ-5D index was lower than before the fracture in 41(33.6%) patients, showing a strong correlation with the Barthel index ( r=0.833, 0.705, both P<0.05). Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS-2002) ( OR=1.352), Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) ( OR=1.121), hip replacement ( OR=0.795), and lung infection ( OR=1.328) were independently associated with a decrease in HRQoL in patients with hip fracture (all P<0.05). The consistency index (C-index) of the column line plot was 0.889 (0.791 to 0.955), and the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.871 (0.784 to 0.947). The DCA results showed that the model provided good net clinical benefit. Conclusions:The model can effectively identify patients at high risk of declining HRQoL, which is helpful to determine priority patients to provide nursing strategies.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the application value of the Nottingham Hip Fracture Score (NHFS) in China and establish a formula specifically designed to assess the risk for 30-day mortality after surgery for hip fracture patients in China.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 824 hip fracture patients who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedics, The First Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from August 2019 to May 2022. There were 312 males and 512 females with a median age of 73 (63, 82) years. The clinical data were compared between patients with different survival outcomes. The 30-day mortality was calculated by the formula according to the patients' NHFS, and compared with the actual one to validate the effectiveness of the original prediction model. The patients were divided into a training group ( n=577) and a validation group ( n=247). Binary logistic regression analysis was performed to establish a new prediction model for the patients in the training group. The discrimination, calibration, and clinical effectiveness of the predictive model were assessed in both the training and validation groups. Results:Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age (≥86 years old) ( OR=3.775, 95% CI: 1.099 to 12.972, P=0.035), male ( OR=3.151, 95% CI: 1.574 to 6.306, P=0.001), admission hemoglobin concentration ≤100 g/L ( OR=2.402, 95% CI: 1.189 to 4.850, P=0.015), dependence on others for care before admission ( OR=2.673, 95% CI: 1.298 to 5.505, P=0.008), and comorbidities ≥2 ( OR=4.988, 95% CI: 1.874 to 13.274, P=0.001) were identified as risk factors for postoperative 30-day mortality (all P<0.05). In validation of the original prediction model, the C-index was found to be 0.764, indicating good discrimination. However, there was a significant discrepancy between the mortality forecast by the original prediction model and the actual mortality ( P<0.05), indicating poor calibration. After the prediction model was recalibrated, 30-day mortality (%) = 100/[1 + e (5.818-NHFS×0.599)]. After the new prediction model was validated in both the training and validation groups, the C-indexes were 0.762 and 0.780, indicating a good level of discrimination. The predicted 30-day mortality by the prediction model was closely aligned with the actual mortality ( P>0.05), demonstrating good calibration. When the threshold probabilities of the training and the validation groups were 0 to 26% and 0 to 35%, respectively, the patients might benefit from clinical intervention, showing clinical effectiveness of the model. Conclusions:The NHFS can predict the risk for 30-day mortality after hip fracture surgery. The new NHFS prediction model after calibration has a good predictive value for 30-day mortality after hip fracture surgery in Chinese population.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of fascial iliaca compartment block (FICB) continuous analgesia in the early stage after admission on early postoperative cognitive and motor function in elderly patients with hip fractures.Methods:A total of 80 elderly patients with hip fractures admitted toThe First Affiliated Hospital of Tsinghua University from June 2018 to June 2020 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group, with 40 cases in each group. The control group adopted the routine postoperative analgesia regimen, while the observation group adopted FICB analgesia immediately after admission to the hospital until before the operation. Postoperative analgesia pattern was consistent with that of the control group, and both groups were given postoperative analgesia for 48 h. The scores of visual analogue scale (VAS), mini mental state assessment scale (MMSE), Harris hip score (Harris) and surgical indexes, stress indexes and incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results:The levels of postoperative blood glucose, cortisol, angiotensin Ⅱin the observation group were lower than those in the control group: (5.21 ± 1.03) mmol/L vs. (7.03 ± 1.06) mmol/L, (643.08 ± 77.28) nmol/L vs. (747.96 ± 82.80) nmol/L, (41.03 ± 5.22) ng/L vs. (57.15 ± 8.16) ng/L, there were statistically differences ( P<0.05). The dosage of sufentanil in the observation group was lower than that in the control group: (27.48 ± 3.25) mg vs. (58.54 ± 4.86) mg, there was statistically difference ( P<0.05). The scores of VAS score at 12 h before surgery, 12 h and 48 h after surgery in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the scores of MMSE score were higher than those in the control group, there were statistically differences ( P<0.05). After the surgery, the Harris scores in the observation group was higher than that in the control group: (76.09 ± 6.11) scores vs. (65.62 ± 6.13) scores, there was statistically difference ( P<0.05). The incidence rate of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in the observation group was lower than that in the control group: 2.5%(1/40) vs. 15.0%(6/40), there was statistically difference ( χ2 = 3.91, P<0.05). Conclusions:FICB continuou sanalgesic in the early stage after admission of elderly patients with hip fracture is satisfactory, which can effectively relieve postoperative pain, while the stress response is relatively mild, the recovery of postoperative cognitive function and hip function is good.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effect of acupoint stimulation assisted anesthesia on the agitation during recovery and the levels of serum opioids (Opiorphin) and amyloid A (SAA) in elderly patients after hip fracture surgery.Methods:Eighty-six older patients who underwent hip fracture surgery in Shaoxing Second Hospital from February 2020 to September 2021 were randomly divided into the routine group and the research group, each with 43 patients. They were given acupoint sham stimulation and acupoint stimulation respectively, and the general indexes of the two groups, recovery quality, cognitive function and changes in serum Opiorphin and SAA levels were compared.Results:There were no differences in operation time, anesthesia time, recovery time and intraoperative blood transfusion between the two groups ( P>0.05). The dosage of remifentanil in the research group was significantly lower than that in the routine group: (270.64 ± 17.62) μg vs. (291.82 ± 23.34) μg, P<0.05. The incidence of agitation during the recovery period in the research group was significantly lower than that in the routine group: 13.95% (6/43) vs. 48.84% (21/43), P<0.05. The mini-mental state examination (MMSE) scores in the research group at 12, 24 and 48 h after operation were significantly higher than those in the routine group: (22.80 ± 2.04) scores vs. (19.31 ± 3.61) scores, (24.92 ± 2.44) scores vs. (21.49 ± 3.58) scores, (26.73 ± 2.57) scores vs. (24.23 ± 3.95) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The serum Opiorphin level at 24 h after operation in the research group was higher than that in the routine group: (32.74 ± 8.57) mg/L vs. (25.40 ± 6.36) mg/L; and the SAA level was lower than that in the routine group: (157.36 ± 10.24) mg/L vs. (204.37 ± 15.56) mg/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Acupoint stimulation adjuvant anesthesia can reduce the occurrence of agitation during the recovery period of elderly patients with hip fracture, reduce the dosage of anesthetics, reduce postoperative cognitive impairment, regulate serum Opiorphin and SAA levels, and help early postoperative recovery.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the treatment of infected nonunion after internal fixation of subtrochanteric fracture with a reconstruction stent of external fixation.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 5 male patients with infected nonunion after internal fixation of subtrochanteric fracture who had been treated and completely followed up at The Great Wall Orthopaedics and Hand Surgery Hospital from January 2017 to October 2022. The patients were (30.0±13.5) years old. Seinsheimer fracture types: ⅢA (1 case), ⅢB (1 case), Ⅳ (2 cases), and Ⅴ (1 case); original internal fixation: intramedullary system (4 cases) and plate fixation (1 case); the Cierny-Mader anatomical classification: type Ⅳ (diffuse type) for all. After complete debridement at stage one, 2 or 3 hydroxyapatite (HA) coated screws were placed at both fracture ends from the lateral side of the femur for unilateral reconstruction external fixation. Next, a hybrid external fixation scaffold was added with a 1/3 ring at the sagittal position and 1 or 2 HA screws in 4 cases while unilateral reconstruction external fixation was constructed at both sides by inserting 2 HA screws into both fracture ends from the anterior femur at the sagittal position in 1 case. Antibiotic bone cement was used to fill bone defects of (3.8±1.8) cm. At 6 to 8 weeks after debridement when infection did not recur, antibiotic bone cement was removed before autogenous iliac bone grafting was performed in 3 patients and osteotomy bone transport in 2 patients. Infection control, bone union time, time for removal of external fixation stent, complications, Sanders hip function score and Paley bone outcome score were recorded.Results:The 5 patients were followed up for (23.4±8.1) months after surgery. Infection at the fracture ends was controlled after 1 time of debridement in 3 patients and after 2 times of debridement in 2 patients. The loosening HA screws were replaced twice due to infection at the proximal nail tract, and autologous bone grafting was performed at the opposite fracture ends in 1 case; no complications occurred in the other 4 cases. Bony union was achieved at the extended segment and fracture ends in all patients. The time for imaging union after bone reconstruction was (10.2±3.4) months. The time for wearing a stent of external fixation was (18.0±4.5) months. There was no recurrent infection or lingering infection. According to the Sanders hip function score at the last follow-up, 4 cases were excellent and 1 case was good; according to the Paley bone outcome score, the curative effect was excellent in all.Conclusion:Application of a reconstruction stent of external fixation combined with antibiotic bone cement can control infection at the first stage and conduct bone reconstruction at the second stage to successfully treat the infected nonunion and preserve the hip function after internal fixation of subtrochanteric fracture.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) assisted by the "3-2-1" surface positioning method in the treatment of femoral subtrochanteric fractures.Methods:A total of 97 patients with subtrochanteric fractures admitted to the Second Hospital of Fuzhou from January 2015 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into two groups according to whether the "3-2-1" surface positioning method (3 longitudinal axes, 2 preset incisions, and 1 auxiliary incision) was used. There were 44 patients in the surface positioning group, including 25 males and 19 females, aged 61.59±18.43 years (range, 22-90 years). According to the Seinsheimer classification, there were 13 cases of type II, 11 cases of type III, 6 cases of type IV, and 14 cases of type V. The mechanism of injury was low energy injury in 26 cases and high energy injury in 18 cases. There were 53 patients in the traditional positioning group, including 30 males and 20 females, aged 56.38±17.24 years (range, 24-90 years). According to the Seinsheimer classification, there were 9 cases of type II, 22 cases of type III, 9 cases of type IV, and 13 cases of type V. According to the mechanism of injury, there were 30 cases of low energy injury and 23 cases of high energy injury. The length of incision, operation time, and blood loss were recorded. At 1, 3, 6, and 12 months after operation, the anteroposterior and lateral X-ray films of the hip were taken to evaluate the imaging indicators (neck-shaft angle, anteroposterior and lateral displacement, and angulation), fracture healing, and complications (infection, malunion, loosening and breakage of the internal fixation, and periprosthetic fracture). The Harris hip score and EuroQol five dimensions questionnaire (EQ-5D) were evaluated.Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and were followed up for 15.12±1.54 months (range, 12-18 months). The operation time, incision length, dominant blood loss and hidden blood loss in the surface positioning group were 1.78(1.50, 2.00) h, 8(8, 9) cm, 300(200, 400) ml and 843(629, 1 130) ml, respectively, which were less than 2.10(1.69, 2.38) h, 10(9, 12) cm, 400(300, 500) ml and 1 030(954, 1 266) ml in the traditional positioning group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The neck-shaft angle in the surface positioning group was 135.54°±2.83°, which was larger than 132.33°±3.37° in the traditional positioning group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.02, P<0.001). The anterolateral and lateral displacement and lateral image angle in the surface positioning group were 4.70±1.60 cm, 4.52±1.71 cm and 9.36°±2.94°, respectively, which were lower than 6.14±2.57 cm, 5.98±2.70 cm and 11.46°±4.68° in the traditional positioning group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). One year after operation, the Harris hip score and EQ-5D score of the surface positioning group were 92(84, 99) points and 0.90(0.73, 1.00) points, respectively, which were higher than 88(74, 96) points and 0.81(0.72, 0.94) points of the traditional positioning group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The "3-2-1" surface positioning method assisted PFNA internal fixation in the treatment of femoral subtrochanteric fracture can improve the quality of reduction, reduce intraoperative blood loss, and improve hip function and quality of life.
