“…A recent study 20 showed that the incidence of hip fracture in Chile is of 40 cases per 100 thousand inhabitants. On the other hand, another recent study 22 projected a 27% growth in the incidence of fractures by 2030. The estimate of mortality in Chile in 2017 is around 30%, with an estimated number of deaths per year close to the number of patients who die per year from colon cancer.…”

“…Hip fractures in the elderly can have an enormous social impact and represent a rising concern for health systems worldwide [ 6 ]. In Chile, 2 relevant phenomena are observed: first is that hip fracture frequency will increase during the present decade by 27.5% [ 7 ] and second is that there is a disparity in patient access to timely treatment between public and private hospitals, which has repercussions on several postoperative results, including hospital length of stay (LOS) [ 1 ]. The latter is of great relevance, since LOS beyond 14 days is associated with increased mortality rates, even when patients are satisfactorily discharged [ 18 ].…”

“…En 2018, el número de cirugías electivas aumentó a 8.231 ATCs y 5.276 ATRs, lo que representa incrementos del 54.95% y 101.45%, respectivamente. Así mismo, de acuerdo con un reporte nacional reciente, 6 las fracturas de cadera, patología que se espera que alcance los 9.862 casos anuales en 2030, serán también una fuente importante de pacientes con requerimiento de artroplastia de cadera.…”
