Abstract

Objective: Our objective was to evaluate the mid-to-long term mortality rates (with an average of 1-year follow-up) and associated factors of geriatric patients with hip fractures during the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: Prospectively followed-up 104 geriatric patients over 65 years old, with hip fractures during the pandemic, 89 of which underwent surgery, were evaluated. A control group of 126 geriatric patients treated for hip fractures before the pandemic was formed. Patient demographics, initial SARS-Cov-2 Reverse Transcriptase PCR test results, fracture type, type of surgery performed, length of stay (LOS) in hospital and early complications were analyzed. Results: The mid-to-long term mortality rate of geriatric patients with hip fractures treated during the pandemic period was 42.3% whereas the mortality rate of the control group was calculated as 38.9% (p=0.599). Patients that were unfit for surgery and patients with positive initial SARS-Cov-2 Reverse Transcriptase PCR test were significantly related with higher mortality (p

Özet

Amaç: Amacımız, COVID-19 pandemisi sırasında kalça kırığı olan geriatrik hastaların orta-uzun vadeli ölüm oranlarını (ortalama 1 yıllık takip ile) ve ilişkili faktörleri değerlendirmekti. Yöntemler: Pandemi sırasında kalça kırığı nedenli takip edilen 65 yaş üstü 104 geriatrik hasta prospektif olarak izlendi ve 89’u ameliyat edildi. Pandemiden önce kalça kırığı tedavisi gören 126 geriatrik hastadan oluşan bir kontrol grubu oluşturuldu. Hastaların demografik verileri, ilk SARS-Cov-2 Reverse Transkriptaz PCR testi sonuçları, kırık tipi, gerçekleştirilen ameliyat tipi, hastanede kalış süresi ve erken komplikasyonlar analiz edildi. Sonuçlar: Pandemi döneminde tedavi edilen kalça kırığı olan geriatrik hastaların orta-uzun dönem mortalite oranı %42,3 iken kontrol grubunun mortalite oranı %38,9 olarak hesaplandı (p=0,599). Ameliyat için uygun olmayan hastalar ve ilk SARS-Cov-2 Reverse Transkriptaz PCR testi pozitif olan hastalar ile daha yüksek mortalite oranları arasında anlamlı ilişki tespit edildi (her biri için p
