POS-348 Predicting Difficulties with Direct Home Discharge Following Hip Fracture for Patients Living with CKD: Insights from a 6-Year Prospective Study

Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at higher risk of falls and sustaining hip fractures compared to those without CKD. Worse clinical outcomes are observed in CKD groups, exacerbated by frailty, sarcopenia and other co-morbidities. Arranging discharge to own home following hip fracture is often difficult for older patients living with CKD. Patients with CKD usually have markedly deteriorated functional status following acute trauma and basic rehabilitation requirements cannot be holistically supported within a home environment.
