Abstract
This meta-analysis explicitly indicated that malignancy, nursing home residence, time to surgery (>2days/<2days), pulmonary disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease significantly increased the risk of mortality after hip fracture surgery. These preventable risk factors may be used to create algorithms that are more effective and pertinent to reduce the mortality following hip fracture surgery.
