Seventy-six female patients, having sustained a fracture of the neck of femur, were assessed preoperatively by measuring their muscle strength in the form of grip using a hand-held dynamometer and by measuring serum albumin. A grip strength of less than 15 kg was found to be a reliable predictor of subsequent postoperative complications in female patients over the age of 80. Serum albumin had no predictive value. There was no significant difference in complication rates between different surgeons.
76名股骨颈骨折的女性患者在术前接受了评估，评估方式包括使用手持测力计以握力形式测量其肌肉力量，以及测量血清白蛋白。结果发现，握力小于15千克是80岁以上女性患者术后并发症的可靠预测指标。血清白蛋白没有预测价值。不同外科医生之间的并发症发生率没有显著差异。
