Table 7.37 shows that 99% of these 10 690 stays are situated in MDC 08<br />

(musculoskeletal system).<br />

All APR-DRGs of MDC 08, as pres<strong>en</strong>ted in Table 7.38, are surgical of nature. A surgical<br />

APR-DRG for trauma was assigned in most of the cases: APR-DRG 308 in 68% of the<br />

stays and APR-DRG 301 in another 31%. Less than 1% belongs to another APR-DRG.<br />

For reasons of homog<strong>en</strong>eity, it was <strong>de</strong>ci<strong>de</strong>d to discard bilateral procedures (APR-DRG<br />

300 = 51 stays) and amputations (APR-DRG 305 = 7 stays). Subsequ<strong>en</strong>tly, another 33<br />

stays were discar<strong>de</strong>d due to data irregularities.<br />

A last filter was applied on the 10 454 remaining stays in or<strong>de</strong>r to exclu<strong>de</strong> pati<strong>en</strong>ts who<br />

were selected more than once (number = 215) or who were readmitted for hip<br />

fracture surgery within 90 days in the period 2004-2005 (number = 305). This was done<br />

to avoid confusion in id<strong>en</strong>tifying and allocating adverse ev<strong>en</strong>ts. The final p<strong>op</strong>ulation<br />

inclu<strong>de</strong>d 9 934 stays.<br />

Results of <strong>de</strong>finition: 9 934 stays with a proximal femur fracture were<br />

selected.<br />

7.3.4 Definition of <strong>volume</strong><br />

Table 7.39 shows that 113 hospitals surgically treated 88 hip fractures on average, in<br />

2004. One hospital performed 225 procedures, the second in <strong>volume</strong> accounting for<br />

222 procedures. Three quarters of the hospitals treated 116 hip fractures or less.<br />
