The aim of this study was to characterize the impact of neck of femur fractures on activities of daily living and patient-reported health-related quality of life. Design and participants: Multicentric prospective cohort study. Consecutive sample patients with fragility hip fracture over 50 years old admitted in 48 hospitals in Spain. daily living activity function (Barthel Index) and health-related quality of life (EQ-5D) pre-fracture, admission to hospital and at 1- and 4-month follow-up post-fracture. Barthel and EQ-5D over time are described as mean (SD) and median (interquartile range). A total of 997 patients were recruited at baseline with 4-month outcomes available for, and 856 patients (89.5%). Barthel Index fell from 78.77 (23.75) at baseline to 43.62 (19.86) on admission to hospital with the fracture. Scores partially recovered to 54.89 (25.40) and 64.09 (21.35) at 1- and 4-month post-fracture, respectively. EQ-5D fell from a median of 0.75 (0.47-0.91) to - 0.01 (- 0.03 to 0.51) on admission. Partial recovery was observed again to (0.51 (- 0.06 to 0.67)) and (0.60 (0.10 to 0.80)) at 1- and 4-month post-fracture, respectively. Hip fracture results in a large decline in the ability to perform activities of daily living and patient-reported health-related quality of life with only partial recovery amongst survivors 4-month post-fracture.enAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Fragility hip fractureOsteoporosisQuality of lifeRegistriesActivities of Daily LivingAgedAged, 80 and overCost of IllnessFemaleFemoral Neck FracturesHumansMaleMiddle AgedPatient Reported Outcome MeasuresProspective StudiesQuality of LifeSpainresearch article31144117open access10.1007/s11657-019-0607-01862-3514PMC6541580https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11657-019-0607-0.pdfhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6541580/pdf
