description 80,000 hip fractures are admitted to UK hospitals annually (Royal College of Physicians, 2016). Little is known about 12-month post-operative re-admission, unplanned clinic attendance and mortality. We aimed to determine if there is a role for routine follow-up for certain strata of our hip fracture population treated by Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) Fixation based on unplanned attendance to clinics and whether it is possible to stratify risk of re-admission, re-operation and mortality within the first 12 months post-operatively. A prospectively collated single centre database of patients >65 years old undergoing DHS fixation for traumatic hip fractures between August 2007 and February 2011 was retrospectively analysed. Pre-operative data regarding patient demographics, mobility, residence and co-morbidities were collected. Post-operative (1, 4, 12 months) place of residence, mobility status, unplanned attendance to an orthopaedic clinic with symptoms relating to the respective limb, re-admission to hospital and mortality was collated. Regression analysis was performed (SPSS, IBM Corporation, version 24). P

Post-operative (1, 4, 12 months) place of residence, mobility status, unplanned attendance to an orthopaedic clinic with symptoms relating to the respective limb, re-admission to hospital and mortality was collated. Regression analysis was performed (SPSS, IBM Corporation, version 24). P &lt; 0.05 was considered significant. 648 consecutive patients were identified. Increasing age (p = 0.006) and presence of pressure sores during initial admission (p = 0.0019) increased the frequency of unplanned clinic attendance. No significant predictors of re-admission to hospital were found. Overall mortality was related to increasing age (p = 0.042), male gender (p = 0.004) and ASA grade (p = 0.009). There is no current vogue to follow-up such patients in this post-operative period. We have identified variables that should be sought prior to discharge in this population. 22% of our population had at least one unplanned clinic attendance with a cost implication of approximately £50,132 (£151 per appointment) over the study period and potentially over £1.6 million pounds annually in the U.K. Formal follow-up/rehabilitation programs could be offered for those at risk of unplanned clinic attendance. Post-operative orthogeriatric and/or general practitioner follow-up may reduce 12-month mortality in those at risk but validated scoring and risk stratification systems are required to fully justify this.</description><identifier>ISSN: 0020-1383</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1879-0267</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.injury.2018.01.007</identifier><identifier>PMID: 29422294</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Netherlands: Elsevier Ltd</publisher><subject>Hip fracture ; Risk stratification ; Unplanned clinic attendance ; Unplanned re-admission</subject><ispartof>Injury, 2018-03, Vol.49 (3), p.662-666</ispartof><rights>2018</rights><rights>Copyright © 2018.
