OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on hospital admission and mortality indicators in older adults with fractures of the proximal femur.
METHODS: Observational and retrospective study that took place from June 2016 to 2020. Patients of both genders who underwent surgical treatment for fractures of the proximal end of the femur, aged over 60 years, were included.
RESULTS: The population consisted of 379 patients, treated before (group 1; N = 278; 73.35%) and during the pandemic (group 2; N = 101; 26.65%). Higher mortality was observed in group 2 (N = 24; 23.8%) versus group 1 (N = 10; 3.6%), p < 0.001. The highest proportion of deaths in group 2 was maintained in patients aged 70-79 years (p = 0.011), 80-89 years (p ≤ 0.001) and > 90 years (p ≤ 0.001). In addition, the preoperative time and hospital stay were longer in group 2 compared to group 1 (p ≤ 0.001).
CONCLUSION: The present study demonstrated that the pandemic period increased the mortality rate and the preoperative and hospitalization time in older patients with femur fractures. Thus, the pandemic has affected the care of fractures of the proximal femur in older adults, which reinforces the need to adopt measures to reduce complications and mortality. Level of Evidence II, Retrospective Study.
