98 (95% CI 2.14 - 37.74); p-value = 0.003). Using NSQIP database to analyze periprosthetic hip and knee fractures, delay to surgery is an independent risk factor for increased 30-day major morbidity and mortality when controlling for patient functional status and co-morbidities. While patient optimization and surgical planning are paramount, minimizing extended delays to surgery is a potentially modifiable risk factor in the geriatric periprosthetic lower extremity fracture patient.
