Subsequent fracture risk after hip fracture surgery in China: a three-year retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

This study aims to characterize subsequent fractures in a cohort of older adults undergoing hip fracture surgery in China, and to evaluate the risk factors associated with the subsequent fractures.

Methods

In this retrospective cohort study, we collected 3-year postoperative follow-up data for older patients (aged 60 years and above) who were admitted and underwent surgery for hip fractures at a single center in Beijing, China, from 2016 to 2018. The patients were categorized into two groups: those who experienced a subsequent fracture during three years post-surgery and those who did not.

Results

Within three years post-surgery, 63.7% (1,714/2,689) of patients had follow-up visits, with a cumulative incidence of subsequent fractures of 11.3% (193/1,714). Pa
