*N varies in analyses of quality indicators because some variables are missing for some patients.
†The adjusted analyses were adjusted for: age, sex, ASA class, cognitive impairment prefracture, fracture type (femoral neck fracture versus pertrochanteric/subtrochanteric fracture) and prefracture dependency.
