Excerpt

Globally, more than six million hip fractures will occur per year by 2050 [7]. In elderly patients, these injuries are associated with tremendous morbidity, mortality, and economic burden. Current estimates of 1-year mortality after hip fracture range from 14% to 36% [1, 3], and survivors frequently experience immobility, loss of independence, and impaired quality of life [10]. Healthcare costs including nursing, rehabilitation, and homecare can cost more than USD 80,000 per patient [4], or approximately three times the cost of caring for a patient without a fracture [9]. Evidence-based management guidelines to optimize the care of patients with hip fractures are critical to improve outcomes and decrease costs for patients with hip fractures. …
