Factors affecting one-year mortality in patients over 65 years of age undergoing surgery for hip fracture
We found that older patient age, delayed surgery, low albumin level, low total lymphocyte count, and high creatinine levels at hospital admission are associated with increased mortality after hip fracture. Comorbidities, number of comorbidities, transfusions, and ICU requirements were not associated with increased mortality, unlike the literature.
