Abstract:
Objective To quantitatively analyze the operation risks for femoral intertrochanteric frac-tures under the guidance of Acute Physiology and Chronic Health EvaluationⅡ( APACHEⅡ) . Methods A retrospective analysis was performed among the 226 patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture who had re-ceived surgery between January 2013 and January 2016. They were 59 men and 167 women, aged from 69 to 106 years ( average, 75. 4 ± 6. 1 years ) . Their average APACHEⅡscore was 18. 3 ± 6. 3 ( from 5 to 34 ) . They were divided into 3 groups according to their APACHEⅡscores: 127 cases in the low risk group (≤ 15 ) , 68 cases in the medium risk group ( from 16 to 24 ) and 31 cases in the high risk group ( ≥25 ) . The mortality was compared between the 3 groups. The deaths and survivals were compared in each group in terms of age, oper-ation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative blood transfusion and combined internal diseases. Results Thirteen patients died during hospitalization, giving a mortality of 5. 7% ( 13/226 ) . The causes for death were heart attack in 6 cases, respiratory failure in 4, toxic shock in 2 and renal failure in one. The mortality in the high risk group ( 22. 6%, 7/31 ) was significantly higher than in the low risk group ( 1. 6%, 2/125 ) and in the medium risk group ( 5. 9%, 4/68 ) ( P <0. 05 ) . In the low risk group, the intraoperative blood loss was sta-tistically different between deaths and survivals ( P <0. 05 ); in the medium risk group, the intraoperative blood loss and postoperative blood transfusion volume were statistically different between deaths and survivals ( P <0. 05 ); in the high risk group, the age and intraoperative blood loss were statistically different between deaths and survivals ( P <0. 05 ) . Conclusions APACHEⅡcan be used to quantitatively evaluate the patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture who usually suffer from intraoperative complications and concomitant in-ternal diseases. The most significant risk factor may be intraoperative blood loss.
