Cardiac Clearance vs. G60 Hip Frailty Index Study
This observational study is looking at information from patients aged 60 and older who have had an orthopedic injury requiring surgery at Methodist Dallas Medical Center. Researchers will collect existing medical information, such as demographic details, diagnoses, and surgical procedures, from the hospital's trauma registry. The goal is to create a database to help understand how a patient's heart health before surgery and their Orthopedic Hip Frailty Score (a tool to predict risk in older patients with hip fractures) relate to their outcomes after surgery, especially mortality. This study aims to enroll 100 participants. The current recruitment status is unclear.
