This effect has not been previously studied for 90-day mortality or in the United Kingdom (UK). Our aim was to investigate the effect of LOS on 30-day and 90-day mortality following hip fracture in a UK population. In this single-centre study, we retrospectively identified consecutive patients with a hip fracture from the National Hip Fracture Database over 3 years. We excluded patients who died as inpatient during their index admission. The main end-points were 30-day and 90-day mortalities and risk factors for these were examined using stepwise univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses. Of 1228 patients, mortality at 30-days was 1.2% (15 patients) and 7.8% (96 patients) at 90-days. Mean LOS was 24 days and a total of 206 patients had a LOS of 10 days or less. Following cariate analysis, the highest risk factor for 30-day mortality was a LOS of 10 days or less with a hazard ratio of 7.26 (95% confidence interval 2.56-20.51). Other risk factors for 30-day mortality included increasing age, male gender and chest infection. A LOS of 10 days or less was not associated with increased mortality at 90-days. A short LOS was associated with higher risk of early mortality. We recommend that hip fracture patients be fully rehabilitated prior to discharge to reduce the risk of early mortality.
