Abstract
ObjectivesThe purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and clarify the risk factors of DVT in patients with femoral neck fracture.MethodsA self-designed questionnaire was used to collect the clinical data of 1209 patients with femoral neck fracture in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2019. The content of the questionnaire mainly includes general information, past medical history, history of present illness, operation related information, occurrence of DVT. The collected data were entered into Excel to analyze the incidence and risk factors of DVT in patients with femoral neck fracture. Chi square test and binary logistic regression model was used to screen the risk factors of DVT.Results1209 cases of femoral neck fracture were included in this study. The incidence of DVT was 28.0% (339 patients). Among them, 71.7% (243 patients) were preoperative DVT and 28.3% (96 patients) were postoperative DVT. For the risk-factor analysis, gender, age, time from injury to hospitalization, operative method, anesthesia method and intraoperative blood loss were independent risk factors for DVT.ConclusionThe incidence of DVT in patients with femoral neck fracture is relatively high, and there are many related risk factors.

Femoral neck fracture is a common type of hip fracture
In order to provide a theoretical basis for the prevention and management of Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), this study investigated the patients with femoral neck fracture from two aspects of epidemiological characteristics and risk factors of DVT

Summary
Femoral neck fracture is a common type of hip fracture. A cross-sectional study involving 27,462 people found that the incidence of femoral neck fracture in trauma patients is as high as 38.5% [1]. With the aging of population, the incidence of femoral neck fracture will further increase. As the most common complication of femoral neck fracture patients [3], DVT will increase the medical burden of society, and threaten the lives of patients. A large number of studies have reported the incidence and risk factors of DVT in patients with hip fracture or lower extremity fracture [4,5,6,7,8,9].
