Abstract
The accident disposition as reflected by previous trauma episodes was studied in 242 consecutive hip fracture patients. Trauma episodes had been almost twice as common in hip fracture patients as in a control group. Also, previous fractures were more common.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
