A total of 709 consecutive patients admitted with a hip fracture were prospectively studied to establish the true mortality from the fracture. At one year from injury 37% of patients had died. For 63 (9%) of these patients the hip fracture was thought to have directly contributed to death, for 109 (16%) patients death was possibly related to the hip fracture and for 85 (12%) patients death was totally unrelated to the fracture. Analysis based on the cause of death and time from injury enables us to calculate the true mortality from proximal femoral fractures to be 15%. The remaining deaths are due to a variety of conditions associated with ageing.
对709例连续收治的髋部骨折患者进行了前瞻性研究，以确定骨折导致的实际死亡率。受伤后一年，37%的患者死亡。在这些患者中，63例（9%）被认为髋部骨折直接导致死亡，109例（16%）患者的死亡可能与髋部骨折有关，85例（12%）患者的死亡与骨折完全无关。根据死亡原因和受伤时间进行分析，使我们能够计算出股骨近端骨折导致的实际死亡率为15%。其余死亡是由与衰老相关的各种情况引起的。
