First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether measuring frailty—a person's overall physical weakness—can improve predictions of death within 90 days after hip fracture surgery. Researchers will follow about 200 older adults who have surgery for a broken hip. They will compare the standard risk score with a frailty assessment to see which is more accurate.
