[Accident pension after fracture of the pelvic ring and acetabulum : Changes in pension claims and costs following isolated fractures of the pelvic ring and acetabulum in work-related accidents from 2013 to 2019-A DGUV registry analysis].

Background: It is known that fractures of the pelvic ring and acetabulum in work-related accidents are associated with long periods of incapacity to work, a high rate of reduction in earning capacity (MdE) and high costs for pension/severance pay.

Objective: Investigation of changes in pension claims and costs from 2013 to 2019 after isolated fractures of the pelvic ring and acetabulum in work-related accidents in Germany.

Material And Methods: For all patients from the German Social Accident Insurance (DGUV) registry with isolated fractures of the pelvic ring or acetabulum in work-related accidents, linear trend analyses were carried out among others for the proportion of MdE ≥20%, the proportion of cases receiving pension/severance pay and total costs for pension/severance pay from 2013 to 2019.

Epidemiology and socioeconomic consequences of work-related pelvic and acetabular fractures recorded in the German Social Accident Insurance.

Introduction: Pelvic and acetabular fractures can result from work-related accidents and frequently require lengthy medical treatments. Consequently, high medical costs as well as delayed or absent return to work can be the consequence. Therefore, we aimed to study the socioeconomic consequences of work-related pelvic and acetabular fractures.

A Register Analysis after Tibial Plateau Fracture in Statutory Accident Insurance.
