Predictors of Mortality after Hip Fracture: A Systematic Overview of Secondary Studies

Introduction: Hip fractures in patients are often accompanied by mortality and considerable complications. Accordingly, the aim of this study has dealt with a systematic review of mortality predictors following hip fracture.Methods: The study collected and examined all systematic review and meta-analysis studies published in English between ۲۰۰۰ and ۲۰۲۳, obtained from international databases such as the Cochrane Library, PubMed, and Web of Science. The search strategy involved using MeSH terms matching the keywords (predictor AND mortality AND hip fractures AND systematic review). The inclusion criteria were systematic and meta-analysis studies, while the exclusion criteria consisted of observational studies, letters to the editor, conference abstracts, commentaries, and case series.Results: In the studies that were examined, risk factors, body organs, and certain diseases were found to have a significant correlation with mortality. On the other hand, depression and low serum albumin had no significant association with mortality. In the examined studies, the relationship between other post hip fracture mortality predictors had not been reported.Conclusion: It is crucial to focus on the most significant predictors of mortality following hip fractures in this study. This knowledge can potentially contribute to a reduction in post-hip-fracture mortality rates, and it underscores the importance of long-term collaboration among experienced multidisciplinary medical professionals and specialized healthcare providers to improve survival outcomes after hip fracture.
