McBrien et al. (2014) conducted a letter in Hip fracture. Individualized medical optimization and aftercare was evaluated on 30-day mortality. Individualized medical optimization and aftercare for hip fractures at a single center was associated with a reduction in 30-day mortality from 7.2% to 5.4% over ten years.
