Background!#!Primary care hospitals and regional trauma centers play an essential role in the treatment of hip fractures.!##!Objective!#!This study investigated the relationship between patient-related parameters and in-hospital mortality as well as complications of hip fractures at a regional trauma center.!##!Methods!#!In a retrospective study, data were collected from all patients > 60 years admitted over 2 years to a regional trauma center with a hip fracture. Patient-related parameters included age, sex, fracture location, method of surgical treatment, time of surgery, duration of surgery, length of inpatient stay, blood transfusion, complications, comorbidities, use of anticoagulant medication and need for postoperative intensive care treatment. The relationship between these parameters and hospital mortality as well as complications was investigated.!##!Results!#!Data were collected from 360 patients undergoing 335 surgeries (f:m 225:110) with a mean age of 83 ± 8 years. The total in-hospital mortality rate was 7.76% (n = 26). Factors increasing in-hospital mortality included: age > 85 years (odds ratio [OR] 5.126; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.665-39.498; p = 0.1167); male sex (OR 1.85 95%-CI [0.82-4.14]; p = 0.0555); time of surgery > 24 h (OR 1.896 95%-CI [0.661-5.441]; p = 0.2341); ≥ 3 comorbidities (OR 10.61 95%-CI [3.681-27.501]; p < 0.0001); intake of anticoagulants (OR 6.19 95%-CI [2.69-14.24]; p < 0.0001) and postoperative intensive care (OR 5.9 95%-CI [2.56-13.76]; p < 0.0001).!##!Conclusion!#!In the present study a statistically significant influence of the number of comorbidities or Charlson comorbidity index, the intake of anticoagulant drugs and need for postoperative intensive care treatment on the in-hospital mortality of patients with proximal femoral fractures in a regional trauma center was found.
