Evaluation and comparison of comorbidity measures to predict mortality and morbidity in older populations


This program of research evaluates the performance of commonly used comorbidity measures (Charlson Comorbidity Index, Elixhauser and Multipurpose Australian Comorbidity Scoring System) on the prediction of 30-day and 1‑year mortality, 28 day re-admission, and length of stay in an older hip fracture population.
