Abstract: Introduction: Proximal femur fractures affect the mortality and morbidity of elderly individuals. Recent studies have shown an association between fragility fractures and hyponatremia, a common fluid and electrolyte balance disorder. Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of hyponatremia in patients with fragility fractures of the proximal femur. Methods: The authors looked into the data from the medical records of patients admitted to the emergency unit of the Real Hospital Português for… Show more

“…Moreover, many drug groups such as thiazide diuretics, Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone system inhibitors, antidepressants, PPIs, and antipsychotics may cause inappropriate ADH syndrome and hyponatremia in this age group [19,20]. Several studies have shown that loop diuretics are linked to osteoporosis and fracture risk [5,16]. Diuretics eliminate sodium and calcium either indirectly via renal excretion or directly via bone resorption from hyponatremia [14,21].…”

“…A fragility fracture is a fracture resulting from a fall from standing height or less. These fractures, which most commonly occur in the hip, spine, or wrist, are an indication that the bones of the body have been weakened by underlying conditions [4,5]. The risk factors for hip fragility fractures are advanced age, sex, race, weight loss, lack of exercise, nutritional disorders, metabolic disorders, smoking, and alcohol use.…”
