In 2008-2009, nearly 95,000 patients over 54 years of age, insured under the General Health Insurance Plan, three-quarters of whom were women, were hospitalised for a fracture of the femur neck.
One in five women and one in three men died in the following year. Death is correlated with age for both sexes, but overmortality relative to the population of the same age is higher for men than for women.
Types of fractures, categories of institutions and types of treatment have little impact on mortality, except when patients cannot be operated. On the other hand, the patient’s state of health at the time of the fracture is decisive.
In multivariate analysis, the risk of one-year death increases as soon as there is a significant chronic disease and increases up to 4.6 times in the most serious patients.
