| Popis: | Background and aims: Prediction of factors associated with survival following hip fracture is important. We studied crude and adjusted survival rates in elderly hip fracture patients with and without atrial fibrillation (AF) to assess possible risk of death associated with AF. Methods: A historical prospective cohort study, comprising 1114 consecutive patients with hip fractures. Subjects were divided into three groups: patients with sinus rhythm (SR), paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) or chronic atrial fibrillation (CAF). The main outcome measures were crude and adjusted survival rates at 30, 90 and 365 days, and end of follow-up. Results: AF patients differed from SR patients by gender (p=0.0018), age (p=0.008), heart failure (p |
