Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Hip fracture has become one of the main reasons for morbidity, death and heavy medical costs in the elderly. With aging, the incidence of hip fractures in the elderly is increased day by day.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate and analyze the incidence and distribution of hip fractures in middle-aged and old population from Changning District of Shanghai, China.

METHODS: Medical records of patients with hip fracture ICD-9 CODE (femoral neck fracture and intertrochanteric fracture) admitted from July 2008 to June 2013 were collected at the Changning District Public Health Information Center and Shanghai Shen Kang Medical Alliance Center. Population distributions of Changning District in 2010 and 2011 were provided by the Disease Control Center of Changning District. Then, the crude morbidity of hip fracture was calculated in terms of different ages and genders. For patients aged over 50 years, every 5 years served as an age group.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The incidence rate of hip fractures in the population aged over 50 years was 197.04/100 000, 88.51/100 000 in male and 304.73/100 000 in female. The annual standardized incidence rate of hip fracture was higher in female than male (P < 0.05). The crude incidence rate of hip fracture was increased dramatically in the population over 70 years, especially in females. It indicates that the incidence rate of hip fractures is closed related to age, gender and osteoporosis.
