In Norway, hip fractures are registered in the Norwegian Patient Registry (NPR), but no published national validation exists. The aim of the present study was a national validation of NPR as a register for hip fractures using diagnostic codes (ICD-10S 72.0-2) and/or procedure codes (NOMESCO...
Identification of hip fractures between 1972 and 2015 was gathered from the National Hospital Discharge Register using the International Classification of Diseases (ICD) -10 codes: S72.0 (fracture of neck of femur), S72.1 (pertrochanteric fracture) and S72.2 (subtrochanteric fracture). The correspond...
The aim of this study was to investigate trends in total hip fracture rates in Norway between 1999 and 2008 and risk of second hip fractures. All hospitalizations given a hip fracture diagnosis code (International Classification of Diseases (ICD) 9 or ICD 10) (cervical, trochanteric or ...
Methods We identified all patients aged 50years or older with hip fracture (ICD-10 codes S72.0, S72.1 and S72.2) in 2005–2012 using medical claims data from the Estonian Health Insurance Fund. Crude and age-specific incidence rates were calculated for men and women using the population of ...
A hip fracture was defined as a fracture with ICD-10 (International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision) code between S72.0 and S72.2, S72.0 being classified as a cervical fracture and S72.1 and S72.2 as trochanteric fractures. All of the hip fractures were confirmed manually from ...

In this study we examined the effect of simultaneously elevated levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) (≥ 65 ng/mL) and high levels of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 1 (IGFBP-1) on the 10-year risk of all-cause mortality and hip fractures. Blood tests for levels of PTH and...
Hip fractures include femoral neck, intertrochanteric or subtrochanteric fractures, and the classification is based on their location. In risk parlance, the term “hip fracture” refers to all these types. Similar to the incidence pattern of any fracture, the incidence of hip fracture exponentially ...
Background. Our aim was to determine the incidence of hip fractures within two years after stroke, to identify associated factors, to evaluate which test instruments that best could identify people a...
We collected hospitalization data according to the ICD-10 for low-trauma hip fractures. The fracture rate was calculated when the patients were stratified by sex, age, and geographic region, and linear regression analysis was performed to evaluate the secular trends. Results The hip fracture rate ...
