Clinical Epidemiology
Background• Established mortality rates after hip and vertebral fracture
UK, 2000-2010• After hip fracture:
– Doubled 1-year risk of mortality– 3 - 4 fold increased in men [1]
[1] Klop C et al. Bone 2014;66:171-77
Clinical Epidemiology
Objective• Update the epidemiology of mortality after fragility fracture,
by– Age– Sex– Major causes of death– Region– Ethnicity– Calendar year
Clinical Epidemiology
Methods• Clinical Practice Research Datalink (2001-2011)• 7% total UK population• Aged 50+• England only• Linked to death certificates• Fractures
– Clinical vertebral, Wrist, Hip, Humerus, Rib, Pelvis• Followed for up to 1 year• Outcome: death
Clinical Epidemiology
Results• 22929 men, mean age 73 years• 59446 women, mean age 76 years
• North West (17%)• Other areas (5%-14%)• North East / East Midlands (3% each)
• 98% Caucasian
• 11,217 deaths

Clinical Epidemiology
Results• Ethnicity
– Elevated 1.8-fold increased risk among black women (versus Caucasian women)
• Secular trends– Unchanged excess mortality post-fracture (2001-2011).
Clinical Epidemiology
Conclusion• 1-year mortality rates after fragility fracture were• Higher
– Elderly– Men– Black women (versus Caucasian)
• Lower– London (women) vs. most other regions
• Comparable– Over calendar time (2001-2011)
Clinical Epidemiology
Conclusion
• Major causes of death included– Cardiovascular disease– Respiratory disease– Malignant neoplasms
• Future research should focus on targeted interventions to reduce mortality after fracture
