Study Population

This retrospective study reviewed data from 27,462 trauma patients registered between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2016. The inclusion criteria were age ≥65 years and hospitalization for the treatment of femoral fracture following a fall from standing height level (\<1 m). This study excluded those patients with a fall from ≥1 m as well as those for whom incomplete data were available.

You may qualify if:

  • Patients with a fall from ≥1 m as well as those for whom incomplete data were available.

You may not qualify if:

  • those patients with a fall from ≥1 m
  • patients with incompleted data
