BackgroundWhile interest has focused on opioid use after total hip arthroplasty, little research has investigated opioid use in elderly patients after hip fracture. We hypothesize that a substantial number of opioid-naïve elderly patients go on to chronic opioid use after hip fracture surgery.MethodsWe reviewed a consecutive series of 219 patients 65 years and older who underwent surgical fixation between January 1, 2016 and February 28, 2019 for a native hip fracture. Patients were excluded for polytrauma, periprosthetic or pathologic fractures, recent major surgery, or death within 90 days of their hip surgery. The state prescription monitoring database was used to determine opioid use.ResultsOverall, 58 patients (26%) were postoperative chronic opioid users. Of the initial 188 opioid-naïve patients, 43 (23%) became chronic users. Of the 31 preoperative opioid users, 15 (48%) continued as chronic users. Chronic postoperative users were more likely to be White (76% vs 91%,P= .04), younger (78 vs 82 years,P= .003), and preoperative opioid users (odds ratio 3.3,P= .007). Arthroplasty vs fixation did not affect the rate of chronic opioid use (P= .22).ConclusionChronic opioid use is surprisingly common after hip fracture repair in the elderly. Twenty-three percent of opioid-naïve hip fracture patients became chronic users after surgery. Continued vigilance is needed by orthopedic surgeons to limit the amount and duration of postoperative narcotic prescriptions and to monitor for continued use.
