Official titleGlobal burden of hip fractures – trends in incidence, post-fracture treatment, and mortality; a multicountry, observational study (20190532)
Study title acronym
Study typeObservational study
Brief description of the studyThis study aims to characterize hip fractures by year among men and women aged 50 years and above within multiple countries. Patient-level electronic health data will be derived from national or regional databases in 20 countries. Each database is estimated to provide at least several hundred hip fractures per year and up to tens of thousands of hip fractures per year. This study will use a retrospective cohort design, and will include patients who were hospitalized due to hip fracture during the study period. The study period was 14 years, from 1st January 2005 to 31st December 2018. Information will be collected to estimate the annual incidences of hip fractures. The proportion of patients having use of a pharmacological treatment for fracture prevention within 12 months following their initial hip fracture by year and the mortality rate within 12 months following patients’ initial hip fracture by year, will also be estimated.
