Examining systemic differences in mortality after hip repair: a comparative analysis of 30- and 180-day adjusted mortality rates in five health systems.

ABSTRACT: Outcomes after a hip repair in the older adult population are highly dependent on patients' characteristics. However, contextual factors such as the hospital of treatment may have an impact not sufficiently studied. We aimed to elicit the effect of hospital providers on all-cause-adjusted mortality rates after hip fracture repair. Observational study on virtually all potentially eligible hip fracture patients treated in 2240 hospitals from Ontario (Canada), Aragon (Spain), Finland, Sweden, and the USA (40 states). The primary endpoint was the risk-adjusted all-cause mortality after hip repair measured 30 days and 180 days after surgery. Following a federated approach, GAMM-logit models were run for each region. Median odds ratio (MOR) were estimated to elicit the variation at hospital leve
