Abstract:Objective To investigate the risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) during hospitalization in elderly patients with hip fracture.Methods Elderly Patients with osteoporotic hip fracture (hip fracture group)and non-osteoporotic non hip fracture (non hip fracture group) from October 2010 to October 2013 were enrolled.The incidence of AMI were compared between groups, the risk factors of AMI during hospitalization in fracture patients were analyzed.Results There were 315 patients in each group.The incidence of AMI in hip fracture group was significantly higher than that in non-hip fracture group [8.3% (26/315) vs 2.5% (8/315)] (P <0.05);the proportion of non ST segment elevation myocardial infarction was higher than that of ST segment elevation myocardial infarction [67.6% (23/34) vs 32.4% (11/34)] (P < 0.05).After adjustment of relative factors such as age, gender and combined disease, hip fracture was independent risk factor of AMI in fracture patients (OR=3.605, 95%CI: 1.391-9.345, P=0.008).Conclusion Hip fracture is an independent risk factor of AMI during hospitalization in patients with fracture.
