The prediction of early mortality following hip fracture surgery in patients aged 90 years and older: the Almelo Hip Fracture Score 90 (AHFS90)
Authors' conclusion
The AHFS90 accurately predicts early mortality after hip fracture surgery in patients ≥ 90 years of age. Predicted risks correspond to observed risks in most risk categories.
Study context
- Population
- Patients ≥ 90 years surgically treated for a hip fracture
- Participants
- 922 patients
- Outcome
