The objective of this meta-analysis was to compare the effects of early and delayed surgery on the risk of mortality, common post-operative complications, and length of hospital stay among elderly hip fracture patients. We searched MEDLINE and EMBASE for relevant prospective studies evaluating surgical delay in patients undergoing surgery for hip fractures published in all languages between 1966 and 2008. Two reviewers independently assessed methodological quality and extracted relevant data.Purpose
