Snippet: Objectives: Compare 30-day mortality rate following a proximal femur fracture (PFF) and SARS-CoV-2 infection versus a PFF and no SARS-CoV-2 infection. Design: Retrospective comparative study. Setting: Three university hospitals in Biscay province (Basque Country, Spain). Patients: 77 patients over 65 years-old with PFF (AO 31-A and 31-B). Intervention: Study conducted between 9 March and 15 April 2020. The COVID-19 group included only patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, confirmed by a positive R
Document: Objectives: Compare 30-day mortality rate following a proximal femur fracture (PFF) and SARS-CoV-2 infection versus a PFF and no SARS-CoV-2 infection. Design: Retrospective comparative study. Setting: Three university hospitals in Biscay province (Basque Country, Spain). Patients: 77 patients over 65 years-old with PFF (AO 31-A and 31-B). Intervention: Study conducted between 9 March and 15 April 2020. The COVID-19 group included only patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection, confirmed by a positive RT-PCR test. Main outcome measurements: 30-day mortality rate and risk factors for mortality. Results: Of a total 77 patients, 10 were diagnosed with SARS CoV-2 infection. Mean age was 85 years. Patients with SARS-Cov-2 infection had higher BMI (29.53 kg/m²) compared to patients without infection (24.09 kg/m²) (p=0.001). No significant differences were found between both groups in terms of the Charlson Comorbidity Index, ASA score, use of oral anticoagulants or presence of cognitive impairment. Seven of the 10 patients in the COVID-19 group developed (viral) pneumonia, as compared to one single case (1/67) of (bacterial) pneumonia in the control group (p< 0.001). Thirty-days mortality was higher (p=0.03) in COVID-19 patients (40%) than in those in the control group (11.9%). In the multivariate analysis, age ≥91 years-old, ASA class IV and BMI >25 kg/m2 were significant predictors of 30-day mortality. All deaths in the COVID-19 group occurred while the patients were hospitalized. Conclusions: SARS CoV-2 infection in patients with a PFF was seen to result in higher rates of early mortality, with COVID-19-related pneumonia being the leading direct cause of mortality. Objetivos: Comparar la tasa de mortalidad a 30 dÃas en pacientes con fractura de fémur proximal (FFP) y coinfección por SARS-CoV-2 frente a FFP sin coinfección. Diseño: Estudio retrospectivo comparativo. Escenario: Tres hospitales universitarios en Vizcaya (PaÃs Vasco, España). Pacientes: 77 pacientes mayores de 65 años con FFP (AO 31-A y 31-B). Intervención: Entre el 9 de Marzo y 15 de Abril de 2020. El grupo COVID-19 incluÃa pacientes con infección confirmada mediante test PCR-RT. Medidas de resultados principales: Tasa de mortalidad a 30 dÃas y factores de riesgo de mortalidad. Resultados: 10 de los 77 pacientes presentaron coinfección por SARS CoV-2. La edad media fue 85 años. Los pacientes infectados presentaban un IMC mayor (29,53 kg/m²) frente a los no infectados (24,09 kg/m²) (p=0,001). No hubo diferencias significativas en el Ãndice de comorbilidad de Charlson, la puntuación ASA, el uso de anticoagulantes o el deterioro cognitivo. Siete pacientes del grupo COVID-19 (7/10) desarrollaron neumonÃa (vÃrica), frente a un solo caso (1/67) de neumonÃa (bacteriana) en el grupo control (p<0,001). La mortalidad a 30 dÃas fue mayor (p=0,03) en los pacientes con COVID-19 (40%) que en el grupo control (11,9%). La edad ≥91 años, la clase IV ASA y el IMC >25 kg/m2 fueron predictores significativos de mortalidad a 30 dÃas. Todas las muertes en el grupo COVID-19 ocurrieron intrahospitalariamente. Conclusiones: La infección por SARS CoV-2 en pacientes con PFF resultó en tasas más altas de mortalidad temprana, siendo la neumonÃa por COVID-19 la principal causa directa de mortalidad.
