M. Hubble et al., PREDICTING THE PROGNOSIS AFTER PROXIMAL FEMORAL FRACTURE, Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England, 77(5), 1995, pp. 355-357
In 338 patients with proximal femoral fractures, age, sex, residence a
nd mobility on admission were found to predict mortality, mobility and
housing requirements after 1 year. Application of these data should p
ermit better targeting of rehabilitation and earlier initiation of reh
ousing arrangements after proximal femoral fracture.
