Hip Fracture Care in Parkinson Disease: A Retrospective Analysis of 1,239 Patients.

Outcomes between PD patients and non-PD patients were mostly equivalent, but more PD patients required discharge to a higher-level care environment compared to non-PD patients. Although PD seems to be a risk factor for hip fracture regardless of age and sex, most patients had not undergone proper screening or preventative treatment for osteoporosis. These results emphasize the need for early bone health evaluation, multidisciplinary collaboration, and care coordination in preventing and treating hip fractures in PD.
