In the South-west Thames Region 2619 patients (2105 women and 514 men) were discharged with a diagnosis of femoral neck fracture in 1974. The equivalent of a 250-bedded hospital was occupied throughout the year. The incidence, average length of stay, and mortality rate rose with increasing age and there were differences in these indices in the five health areas. These results confirm the enormous burden placed on the hospital service by patients with fracture of the femoral neck but suggest that differences in practice in the five areas may contribute to the size of the problem.
1974年，在泰晤士河南部地区，有2619名患者（2105名女性和514名男性）因股骨颈骨折确诊出院。全年占用了相当于一家拥有250张床位医院的资源。发病率、平均住院时间和死亡率均随年龄增长而上升，并且这五个健康区域在这些指标上存在差异。这些结果证实了股骨颈骨折患者给医院服务带来的巨大负担，但表明五个区域的医疗实践差异可能导致了问题的严重程度。
