Association of Brain Natriuretic Peptide Levels at Time of Injury with Morbidity and Mortality in Patients with Surgically Treated Hip Fractures

Association of Brain Natriuretic Peptide Levels at Time of Injury with Morbidity and Mortality in Patients with Surgically Treated Hip Fractures

Background:. An elevated brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level has been shown to be associated with mortality and cardiac events in cardiac surgery, but its utility in the prediction of morbidity and mortality in hip fracture surgery is unknown. The primary aim of this study was to determine if ther...
