Résumé

Nearly 30 years ago, a series of studies showed increased hip fracture mortality in Manitoba compared to the United States, but these data have not been updated. Our objective was to compare the organization of hip fracture care and short-term outcomes in Manitoba and New York State using contemporary data. This was a retrospective cohort study of administrative data for all adults aged 50 years or more admitted to hospital with hip fracture between Jan. 1, 2011, and Oct. 31, 2013 in Manitoba and New York State. We compared the 2 jurisdictions with respect to: 1) the proportion of hospitals treating hip fracture and annual hip fracture volume, 2) hospital length of stay, 3) death and 4) hospital readmission. We used descriptive statistics, univariate methods and regression models to compare differences in care between jurisdictions. We identified 2845 patients (mean age 82.2 yr, 2061 women [72.4%]) with hip fracture in Manitoba and 31 524 patients (mean age 81.9 yr, 22 973 women [72.9%]) with hip fracture in New York. A smaller proportion of hospitals in Manitoba than in New York treated hip fracture (7/30 [23%] v. 180/239 [75.3%]) ( Poor short-term outcomes for patients with hip fracture in Manitoba that were documented in the 1980s seem to have been eliminated. Our results should provide optimism that reengineering of clinical care can produce substantive improvements in quality.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Nearly 30 years ago, a series of studies showed increased hip fracture mortality in Manitoba compared to the United States, but these data have not been updated. Our objective was to compare the organization of hip fracture care and short-term outcomes in Manitoba and New York State using contemporary data.
METHODS METHODS
This was a retrospective cohort study of administrative data for all adults aged 50 years or more admitted to hospital with hip fracture between Jan. 1, 2011, and Oct. 31, 2013 in Manitoba and New York State. We compared the 2 jurisdictions with respect to: 1) the proportion of hospitals treating hip fracture and annual hip fracture volume, 2) hospital length of stay, 3) death and 4) hospital readmission. We used descriptive statistics, univariate methods and regression models to compare differences in care between jurisdictions.
RESULTS RESULTS
We identified 2845 patients (mean age 82.2 yr, 2061 women [72.4%]) with hip fracture in Manitoba and 31 524 patients (mean age 81.9 yr, 22 973 women [72.9%]) with hip fracture in New York. A smaller proportion of hospitals in Manitoba than in New York treated hip fracture (7/30 [23%] v. 180/239 [75.3%]) (
INTERPRETATION CONCLUSIONS
Poor short-term outcomes for patients with hip fracture in Manitoba that were documented in the 1980s seem to have been eliminated. Our results should provide optimism that reengineering of clinical care can produce substantive improvements in quality.
