Key result
Partial hip replacement linked to ~37% one-year mortality, driven by advanced age and high ASA scores.
Why the study?
Hip fracture surgeries are increasing with an aging population, and the study aimed to investigate the relationship between mortality, morbidity, and potential risk factors in patients aged 65 years or older undergoing partial hip prosthesis.
What are the risk factors affecting mortality in patients aged 65 years or older who underwent partial hip prosthesis due to hip fracture?
Population

Elevated one-year mortality after partial hip replacement in elderly patients, markedly higher at age ≥80 or ASA 3-4; hypothesis-generating for targeted interventions.
Cohort (n=443)
What are the risk factors affecting mortality in patients aged 65 years or older who underwent partial hip prosthesis due to hip fracture?
p-value: p=<0.001
In patients aged 65 and older undergoing partial hip replacement for hip fracture, age over 80, higher ASA scores (3-4), and longer hospital stays are significantly associated with increased one-year mortality.
Kılınç et al. (2020) conducted a cohort in Hip fracture requiring partial hip prosthesis (n=443). Advanced age (≥80 years) and high ASA score (3-4) vs. Age <80 years and ASA score 1-2 was evaluated on Mortality within the first year (p=<0.001). In patients aged ≥65 undergoing partial hip replacement, one-year mortality was 36.6% and was significantly higher in patients aged ≥80 years and those with ASA scores of 3-4 (p<0.001).
