Detailed Description
Many elderly patients admitted to hospitals during the evolving COVID-19 pandemic after falls or being generally unwell, were considered to have a possible diagnosis of COVID-19. This was extremely relevant to the subgroup of patients who suffered from fractured neck of femurs during this time, with most of them elderly, frail, and more likely to have multiple co-morbidities. COVID-19 was considered a precipitating factor for falls, but also anecdotally, an indicator of potentially poor recovery and rehabilitation.
With regards to orthopaedic and trauma surgery, a limited amount of literature is available pertaining to COVID-19 and specifically it's potential effects on patient outcomes in patients requiring surgery.
We performed a multi centre observational study across London, United Kingdom, looking at the demographics and details of patients admitted with fractured neck of femur during the evolving pandemic. All data collected was non identifiable. Data was also collected as to the COVID-19 status of these patients, either positive or negative. Data was analysed to assess the morbidity and mortality of this patient group and search for any prognostic factors.
