The aim of this paper is to estimate the proportion of older people who are hospitalised following a presentation to an emergency department for hip, pelvic and wrist fractures. The findings indicate that hospitalisation data do not accurately reflect the incidence of low-trauma fractures, particularly wrist and pelvic fractures, in older people.
本文旨在估算因髋部、骨盆和腕部骨折前往急诊科就诊后住院的老年人比例。研究结果表明,住院数据并不能准确反映老年人低创伤骨折的发生率,尤其是腕部和骨盆骨折。
