Abstract:
Objective:To explore the risk factors for heart failure after hip fracture surgery in the elderly patients and the impact of heart failure on their prognosis.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 1,478 elderly patients with hip fracture who had been admitted to The 7th Medical Center, General Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army from January 2012 to December 2019. There were 482 males and 996 females with an age of 81 (75, 90) years. The patients were divided into a failure group and a failure-free group based on whether they had experienced any heart failure during postoperative hospitalization. After the clinical data were compared between the 2 groups, the variables with P<0.05 were included in the following multivariate logistic regression analysis to determine the risk factors for postoperative heart failure in the elderly patients with hip fracture. The mortality rates at 30 days and 1 year after operation, hospital stay, and incidence of postoperative complications were compared between the 2 groups. Results:Postoperative heart failure occurred in 7.0% (104/1,478) of the patients. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that advanced age ( OR=1.035, 95% CI: 1.006 to 1.065, P=0.018), male ( OR=1.727, 95% CI: 1.125 to 2.651, P=0.012), arrhythmia ( OR=1.830, 95% CI: 1.104 to 3.031, P=0.019), a high volume of blood transfusion ( OR=1.100, 95% CI: 1.001 to 1.209, P=0.048), and preoperative use of anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs ( OR=1.921, 95% CI: 1.053 to 3.505, P=0.033) were risk factors for postoperative heart failure in the elderly patients with hip fracture. In the failure group, the mortality rates at 30 days and 1 year after operation were 9.6% (10/104) and 22.1% (23/104), and the incidence of postoperative complications was 32.7% (34/104), all significantly higher than those in the failure-free group [3.6% (49/1,374), 13.8% (190/1,374), and 17.5% (241/1,374)] ( P<0.05). The hospitalization time for the failure group was 14 (11, 19) days, significantly longer than that for the failure-free group [11 (9, 15) days] ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Advanced age, male, arrhythmia, a high volume of blood transfusion, and preoperative use of anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs are risk factors for heart failure in the elderly patients after hip fracture surgery. Patients with heart failure may face poor prognosis, a high mortality rate, multiple complications, and long hospital stay.
