Description:Background
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) have a higher risk of hip fracture, but lower likelihood of having arthroplasties than non-IBD patients in Nationwide Inpatient Sample. Little is known about hip fracture-associated hospitalization outcomes.
Aims
We assessed the trends in hip fracture hospitalization rates from 2000 to 2017 and estimated 30-day readmission, 30-day mortality, and length of stay in 2016 and 2017.
Methods
We estimated trends of age-adjusted hospitalization rates using a piecewise linear regression. Medicare beneficiaries aged ≥ 66 years with Crohn’s disease (CD, n = 2014) or ulcerative colitis (UC, n = 2971) hospitalized for hip fracture were identified. We performed propensity score matching to create 1:3 matched samples on age, race/ethnicity, sex, and chronic conditions and compared hospitalization outcomes between matched samples.
Results
In 2017, the age-adjusted hospitalization rates (per 100) were 1.15 [95% CI = (1.07–1.24)] for CD, 0.86 [95% CI = (0.82–0.89)] for UC, and 0.59 [95% CI = (0.59–0.59)] for no IBD. The hospitalization rates for CD and UC decreased from 2000 to 2012 and then increased from 2012 to 2017. Compared to matched cohorts, CD patients had longer hospital stays (5.55 days vs. 5.30 days, p = 0.01); UC patients were more likely to have 30-day readmissions (17.27% vs. 13.71%, p < 0.001), longer hospital stays (5.59 days vs. 5.40 days, p = 0.02), and less likely to have 30-day mortality (3.77% vs. 5.15%, p = 0.003).
Conclusions
Prevention of hip fracture is important for older adults with IBD, especially CD. Strategies that improve quality of inpatient care for IBD patients hospitalized for hip fracture should be considered.
