 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 7 Elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures predict the incidence of postoperative complications [Keywords:] POSSUM; elderly patients; intertrochanteric fracture; complications Intertrochanteric fractures occur in the elderly, and osteoporosis, cerebrovascular disease at the same time, and deliberately so, non-surgical treatment takes a long time in bed, more complications, mortality within one year of 34% to 39%; Surgical treatment of patients with early exercise can reduce pain, reduce complications and mortality, but the mortality rate within one year as high as 8.5% (1); if the objective evaluation before surgery to predict postoperative patients and the risk of complications, that is based on the patient’s main symptoms and signs, laboratory examinations (including laboratory, imaging, electrophysiology, etc.) and the severity of surgery such as weighted or assignment to such patients to quantify the incidence of complications, the final assessment of surgical patients the extent of help clinicians choose the treatment method and timing of surgery, fewer postoperative complications. 1 Clinical data 1.1 General Information The group of 30 patients, 11 males and 19 females, aged 82 to 91 (mean (87.5 + -3.45)) years old.
