Elixhauser comorbidity measures-based risk factors associated with 30-day mortality in elderly population after femur fracture surgery: a propensity scorematched retrospective case-control study.

In this study, we evaluated Elixhauser comorbidity measures-based risk factors associated with 30day mortality in patients aged 66 years and older who underwent femur fracture surgery.
