Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Incidence of floating hip injuries

    Determination of the incidence rate of injury by calculating new cases / total number of trauma cases admitted in the time frame from 2018-2023

    From 2018-2023

  • Patterns of injury

    Determination of patterns of injury using the liebergall classification . Fractures are classified into A, B, and C and their percentages over the total number of cases will be calculated

    2018-2023
