Independent predictors of functional loss and refractures in patients with femur fracture

Background: In elderly patients hospitalized for a femur fracture, this study aimed to evaluate the functional evolution, and to estimate the incidence of second fractures at 6 and 18 months after hospital discharge. Patients and methods: A longitudinal prospective study was designed at an Orthogeri...

description Background: In elderly patients hospitalized for a femur fracture, this study aimed to evaluate the functional evolution, and to estimate the incidence of second fractures at 6 and 18 months after hospital discharge. Patients and methods: A longitudinal prospective study was designed at an Orthogeriatric Unit after implementing a Fracture Liaison Service (FLS). The variables collected included the baseline demographic and clinical characteristics of the patients, and the outcome variables on discharge, at 6 and 18 months of follow-up. Logistic regressions models were applied to identify independent predictors of functional evolution. Results: 478 patients were admitted. Independent predictors of functional loss at follow-up were institutionalisation, severe dependence either prior to and on discharge, delirium, protein malnutrition, prior acute myocardial infarction, GFR < 30 ml/min/1.73 m and not receiving treatment for osteoporosis on discharge. Patients attending follow-up appointments presented improved compliance with osteoporosis treatment both at 6 and 18 months. A lower number of 2nd fractures were recorded at 18 months for patients who attended their appointments (4.8% vs 12.1%, p = 0.01). At 6 and 18 months follow-up, a lower rate of readmission was recorded (7% vs 15.3%, p = 0.006), (9.6% vs 25.6%, p < 0.0001), respectively. Conclusions: The independent predictors of functional loss at 6 and 18 months were institutionalisation, severe dependence either prior to and on discharge, delirium, protein malnutrition, prior acute myocardial infarct, GFR < 30 ml/min/1.73 m and not receiving treatment for osteoporosis on discharge. A lower incidence of refractures, a lower readmission rate and a better treatment compliance were observed in patients attending follow-up visits.

Pacientes y métodos: Se diseñó un estudio longitudinal y prospectivo en una Unidad de Ortogeriatría tras la implementación de una Fracture Liaison Service (FLS). Las variables recogidas incluyeron características demográficas y clínicas así como variables al alta hospitalaria, a los 6 y 18 meses de seguimiento en la FLS. Se aplicaron modelos de regresión logística para identificar los predictores independientes de la evolución funcional. Resultados: Los factores predictores independientes de pérdida funcional en el seguimiento fueron: institucionalización, dependencia severa previa y al alta, delirium, desnutrición proteica, infarto agudo de miocardio previo, FG<30ml/min/1.73m² y no recibir tratamiento para la osteoporosis al alta. Los que acudieron a las citas de seguimiento presentaron mejor cumplimiento del tratamiento de la osteoporosis tanto a los 6 como a los 18 meses. Se registró un menor número de segundas fracturas a los 18 meses en los pacientes que acudieron a las visitas (4.8% vs 12.1%, p=0.01). A los 6 y 18 meses de seguimiento se registró una menor tasa de reingresos (7% vs 15.3%, p=0,006), (9.6% vs 25.6%, p<0,0001), respectivamente. Conclusiones: Los factores predictores de pérdida funcional a los 6 y 18 meses fueron la institucionalización, la dependencia severa previa y al alta, el delirium, la desnutrición proteica, el infarto agudo de miocardio previo, el FG<30ml/min/m2 y no recibir tratamiento de la osteoporosis al alta. Se observó una menor incidencia de refracturas, una menor tasa de reingresos y un mejor cumplimiento del tratamiento en los pacientes que acudieron a las visitas de seguimiento.Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona.
