[Predictive capacity for mortality of the Frail-VIG index (IF-VIG) in old patients with hip fracture].

Introduction: Frailty and hip fracture are closely related and are associated with high risk of functional decline and mortality. The objective of this study is to analyze whether the Frail-VIG index [IF-VIG] (fragility index validated in the geriatric population) maintains its predictive capacity for mortality in old patients with hip fracture.

Methods: Observational, cohort, longitudinal and ambispective study on patients admitted to an acute geriatric unit with a hip fracture.
