Summary
This study looks at whether people who break a hip after a simple fall might have an undiagnosed neck condition called cervical myelopathy, which affects the spinal cord. Researchers will check 75 hip fracture patients with a history and physical exam, and offer an MRI if signs are found. The goal is to find and treat this condition to prevent future falls and fractures.
