Why the study?
Is the VMS frailty score associated with overall survival mortality in elderly patients who underwent surgery for hip fracture?
Is the VMS frailty score associated with overall survival mortality in elderly patients who underwent surgery for hip fracture?
The VMS frailty score can be used to classify frailty and is associated with overall survival mortality in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery.
Hypothesis-generating for frailty-based risk stratification in hip fracture surgery; prospective validation needed before clinical use.
VMS can be used in classifying frailty, whereby VMS frailty score is associated with clinical outcomes as overall survival mortality in older patients with hip fracture and who underwent surgery.
