Abstract
INTRODUCTION:The objective of the current study was to investigate the association between lower body bone fractures occurring during maintenance hemodialysis and prognosis.
METHODS:This study included 151 hemodialysis patients at the dialysis center of our hospital as of December 2017, and data were systematically gathered from medical records over a period of 5 years, concluding in December 2022.
RESULTS:Fourteen patients, 3.0 per 100 person-years, in 151 hemodialysis patients suffered from lower body bone fractures. The ratio of males was significantly lower, and age was significantly higher in the lower body bone fracture group than in the no lower body bone fracture group. Duration of hemodialysis prior to entry into this study was significantly shorter in the lower body bone fracture group than in the no lower body bone fracture group. Serum albumin was significantly lower and alkaline phosphatase was significantly higher in the lower body bone fracture group than in the no lower body bone fracture group. Mortality rate was significantly higher in the lower body bone fracture group (85.7%) compared to no lower body bone fracture group (28.5%) (p = 0.01). Kaplan-Meier survival curves for mortality showed that lower body bone fracture group had poor prognosis compared to no lower body bone fracture group. Multivariable-adjusted odds ratio for mortality were significantly higher for cases with lower body bone fractures.
CONCLUSION:Lower body bone fractures have high mortality rates and poor prognosis in the patients with hemodialysis.
