Detailed Description
All patients over 65 years old who are admitted to the orthopedic and traumatology ward diagnosed with hip fracture will be assessed.
The generation of the list of potentially evaluable patients will be performed daily.
Once defined patient inclusion, an intern take oral informed consent and will proceed to complete the CRF.

Variables to be measured:
Patient Data Comorbidities Charlson score Scales functionality Factors prior to the fall Medications Trauma variables Complications Mortality
