Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationship between the Parker Mobility Score (PMS) and hospital discharge outcomes, particularly for geriatric patients with hip fractures, focusing on whether the PMS can predict discharge disposition and hospital length of stay.
- A dual-center retrospective analysis included 649 patients aged 70 and older, revealing that the PMS significantly influenced both discharge destination and length of hospital stay, with an 82.1% accuracy in predicting discharge decisions.
- The findings suggest that incorporating PMS into discharge planning could improve efficiency and potentially shorten hospital stays for elderly patients recovering from hip fractures.

Introduction: Many studies have focussed on the implementation and outcomes of geriatric care pathways (GCPs); however, little is known about the possible impact of clinical practices on these pathways. A comparison was made between two traumageriatric care models, one Swiss (CH) and one Dutch (NL), to assess whether these models would perform similarly despite the possible differences in local clinical practices.
Materials And Methods: This cohort study included all patients aged 70 years or older with a unilateral hip fracture who underwent surgery in 2014 and 2015.
