FACTORS AFFECTING MORTALITY IN PATIENTS WITH HIP FRACTURES AND SHAH HIP FRACTURE MORTALITY SCORE: A RISK QUANTIFICATION TOOL.

This study identified Age, Sex, ambulation, ASA grade and non-operative management as key factors influencing 30 and 365-day mortality. Patients with the non-operative management and ASA grade 4/5 had the worst mortality risk. We devised a scoring system to predicts the 30-day and 365-day mortality which shows an almost linear relationship between the score and mortality rates.
