Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the relationship between fragile fracture sites in hospitalized geriatric and nutritional status.Methods On the basis of whether the fracture,293 cases were divided into fracture group(n =140)and normal control group(n =153),51 males(36.4%)and 89 females(63.6%)in 140 fracture patients. Results The age was (74.04 ±8.58)years in the fracture group,that in the normal control group was (74.77 ± 8.14)years,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(t =-0.743,P >0.05).The femoral neck fracture was 51 cases(36.4%)and intertrochantetic fracture was 57 cases(40.7%),and other was 32 cases (22.8%).The patients were divided into the two groups according to the age:60 ~75 years group(n =62)and >75 years group(n =78),femoral neck fracture was 37.2%,and intertrochantetic fracture was 52.6% in the group that more than 75 years old,which were 35.5% and 25.8%,respectively in 60 ~75 years group,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(χ2 =18.337,P <0.01).The hemoglobin,serum albumin weight,weight,BMI in the fracture group were (117.44 ±20.25)g/L,(34.96 ±4.95)g/L,(60.81 ±10.63)kg,(22.83 ±3.54)kg/m2 , and those in the normal control group were (136.99 ±17.10)g/L,(37.27 ±5.85 )g/L,(64.47 ±11.23)kg, (24.24 ±3.88)kg/m2 respectively.The commonly used nutritional indicators:hemoglobin(t =-8.908),serum albu-min(t =-3.619),weight(t =-2.837)and BMI(t =-3.218)were lower than the normal control group(all P <0.01 ),serum phosphate was lower than the normal control group,the difference was statistically singnificant (t =-2.047,P <0.05).The blood calcium(t =0.630)and ALP(t =-0.550)had no statistically singnificant differences between the two groups(all P >0.05).Conclusion The proportion of intertrochantetic fracture and femo-ral neck fracture were higher in hospitalized elderly patients,and malnutrition,such as lower hemoglobin,lower serum albumin,lower weight,and lower BMI were,important factors in the fragile fracture in the geriatric inpatients.
