Difference in discharge disposition, adherence to clinical care standards and functional outcomes of older hip fracture patients receiving an orthogeriatric model of care versus routine care
The OMC including MRP resulted in higher numbers discharged to post-acute rehabilitation and to home afterwards, as well as improvement of adherence to clinical care standards and functional outcomes, suggesting that OMC is a promising care model. Refinement of OMC is needed to optimize adherence to full weight-bearing and femoral nerve block.
