Although hip fractures are the subject of current research, little is known about the remaining geriatric trauma entities. The aim of this study was to collect data of the age\u2010related traumatological intensive care unit (ICU) population, its underlying diagnosis, and the influence on mortality and length of stay in the ICU.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Geriatric trauma patients (aged \u226565\u2009years) treated postoperatively in our surgical ICU were included in this retrospective observational study covering the period 2013\u20132017. In addition to the underlying fracture entities, patient characteristics, such as age, sex, Charlson Comorbidity Index, length of stay and mortality, were collected to identify possible independent predictive factors for mortality in the ICU using multivariate analysis.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>During the observation period, 805 (60.5%) patients met the inclusion criteria. 47.6% of the patients suffered from a proximal femoral fracture. The total mortality rate during the stay in the ICU was 7.5%. Significant predictive factors for mortality in the ICU were Charlson Comorbidity Index (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001) and length of stay (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001). The different fracture types themselves were not a significant risk factor for mortality (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.862).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients with proximal femoral fractures account for approximately half of the patients in intensive care. The mortality rate of these patients is no higher than that in geriatric trauma patients with other fractures. The progression is essentially influenced by the patient's comorbidities. Nowadays, the focus shifts from trauma care to the therapy of concomitant diseases. Nevertheless, this cohort, when adequately treated, shows a comparatively low mortality rate. <jats:bold>Geriatr Gerontol Int 2020; 20: 1120\u20131125<\/jats:bold>.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/ggi.14053","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,6]],"date-time":"2020-11-06T03:12:39Z","timestamp":1604632359000},"page":"1120-1125","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Type of underlying fracture after the surgical treatment of geriatric trauma patients has no effect on mortality during intensive care treatment"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7881-5857","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tom","family":"Knauf","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery University Hospital Giessen and Marburg  Marburg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kai Oliver","family":"Jensen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center of Trauma Surgery University Hospital Zuerich  Z\u00fcrich Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Juliana","family":"Hack","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery University Hospital Giessen and Marburg  Marburg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Juliane","family":"Barthel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery University Hospital Giessen and Marburg  Marburg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hannah","family":"Althaus","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery University Hospital Giessen and Marburg  Marburg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Benjamin","family":"Buecking","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery, DRK\u2010Kliniken Nordhessen  Kassel Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rene","family":"Aigner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery University Hospital Giessen and Marburg  Marburg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matthias","family":"Knobe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Trauma Cantonal Hospital Lucerne  Lucerne Switzerland"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Steffen","family":"Ruchholtz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery University Hospital Giessen and Marburg  Marburg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Daphne","family":"Eschbach","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Orthopedics and Trauma Surgery University Hospital Giessen and Marburg  Marburg Germany"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","unstructured":"Important Facts about Falls | Home and Recreational Safety | CDC Injury Center [Internet].
