Impact of household characteristics on patient outcomes post hip fracture
Hip fracture patients who live alone have higher one-year mortality, but associations are explained by the demographic and clinical characteristics of those living alone. However, living alone or living with a co-resident with dementia was independently associated with an additional doubling of the risk of care home admission. Household-based approaches to research and health policy may help target risk groups following hip fracture community dis…
Variation in End-of-Life Trajectories in Persons Aged 70 Years and Older, Sweden, 2018‒2020
Objectives. To analyze variation in end-of-life trajectories with regard to elder care and medical care and how they relate to age, gender, and causes of death. Methods. We analyzed all deaths of persons at age 70 years and older between the years 2018 and 2020 in Sweden, using a linkage of population registers. We applied latent class analysis to identify distinct types of end-of-life trajectories. Results. We identified 6 different types of end…
The importance of close next of kin for independent living and readmissions among older Swedish hip fracture patients
We investigate the importance of adult children and/or cohabitation with a partner for older hip fracture patients' probability of independent living, public home care use and hospital readmission. Data from 35,066 Swedish hip fracture patients between 2012 and 2017, aged 65 years, and living at home at the time of the fracture in the Swedish Registry for Hip Fracture Patients and Treatment were linked with national registers. We applied adjusted…
The rise in the number of long-term survivors from different diseases can slow the increase in life expectancy of the total population
Rising numbers of survivors of different diseases can slow the increase in life expectancy. This dynamic may represent the costs associated with successful treatment of diseases, and thus, a potential "failure of success." This dynamic should be considered when assessing mortality and life expectancy trends. As populations are aging and disease survival continues to improve, this issue is likely to become even more important in the future
They Say I Should not Think About It
Despite the high rate of infant mortality in Ghana, few studies have explored the maternal experience of infant loss and the perinatal grieving process. As part of a larger study that interviewed 153 mothers with a sick infant, this 1-year follow-up study reinterviewed eight mothers from the original cohort whose infant died since the study began. Mothers were queried about mental health, coping, and cultural issues related to the loss. Mothers w…
