Femur fracture is an important surgical and public health problem among GRRH patients. It is associated with older age groups and educational levels. Factors associated with improved status at discharge were occupations (peasant farmers and persons employed in the informal sectors), open reduction, spiral, transverse, and oblique fracture lines. Improved status at discharge was less likely in patients with open fractures. We recommend more strategies to reduce the incidence and prevalence of femur fractures by designing and reinforcing policies that reduce motor vehicle accidents in the region. In addition, more efforts should be made to supply enough implants for the management of fracture patients using open reduction and internal fixation.
