Prediction of survival in patients with femoral neck fractures

G K Ions et al. J Bone Joint Surg Br. 1987 May.

Abstract

A prospective study of factors which might help to predict mortality in patients with intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck has been undertaken. A multivariate analysis technique was used to analyse the collected data, and it was found that mental ability was the most significant variable; this factor had the greatest effect on outcome.
