      Risks

        Patient & Prescribing Data

        Elderly patients with acute hip fractures from low-energy trauma.

        Focus on modifiable risk factors to mitigate postoperative sarcopenia.

        Clinical Best Practices

        • Early identification of risk factors for sarcopenia in elderly patients through comprehensive functional assessments.
