Fractures After Inpatient Falls in a Tertiary Rehabilitation Hospital: Associated Factors, Performance of Fall-Risk Scores, and Orthopaedic Outcomes

Fahri Erdi Malkoç, Muhammed Yusuf Afacan, Oğuzhan Yüksel, Dağhan Koyuncu et al.

Short summary

Inpatient falls in a rehabilitation hospital resulted in fractures in 56.0% of 91 events, with lower lumbar T-scores and urinary incontinence showing the strongest, though not statistically significant, associations in adjusted analyses. Conventional fall-risk scores (Morse and Hendrich II) demonstrated poor fracture discrimination (AUCs 0.372 and 0.411, respectively).
