Clinical effect of different treatment protocols for osteoporotic hip fractures in senile patients

Abstract

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of different treatment protocols for osteoporotic hip fracture in senile patients. Methods Clinical data of 156 senile patients with osteoporosis hip fracture admitted to our hospital from Jan. 2012 to Jan. 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical effects of different treatment protocols for osteoporosis hip fracture were compared and analyzed. Results 32 cases were treated with conservative treatment, 15 cases with total hip replacement, 45 cases with artificial femoral head replacement, 16 cases with intramedullary fixation, 10 cases with extramedullary fixation, 38 cases with skeletal traction, and the excellent rate was 56.2%, 93.3%, 91.1%, 62.5%, 60.0% and 63.2%, respectively. Conclusions An appropriate surgical treatment should be selected based on patient's self-conditions and fracture characteristics, while combining with drugs treatment and functional exercise so as to increase the clinical effect in senile patients with osteoporotic hip fracture.
