Popis: | BACKGROUND We evaluated which treatment decisions in the management of displaced femoral neck fractures (FNFs) may associate with measures of resource utilization relevant to a value-based episode-of-care model. METHODS A total of 1139 FNFs treated with hip arthroplasty at 7 hospitals were retrospectively reviewed. Treatment choices were procedure (hemiarthroplasty vs total hip arthroplasty [THA]), surgeon training status, admitting service, and time to surgery. Dependent variables were length of stay, discharge disposition, 30-day readmission, and in-hospital mortality. Variation across hospitals was evaluated with analysis of variance and chi-square tests. Treatment choices were evaluated for the dependent variables of interest with univariable and multivariable regression. RESULTS There was significant variation between hospitals regarding proportion of cases treated with THA (range = 3.0%-73.2%, P < .001), proportion treated by arthroplasty fellowship-trained surgeons (range = 0%-74.9%, P < .001), proportion admitted to the orthopedic service (range = 2.8%-91.3%, P |
