Rotterdam Hip Fracture Mortality Prediction, 30 days calculator

Enter the published formula inputs below to calculate and interpret this score.

Clinical inputs

years

Allowed range: 18–110 years

Quick picks

Age in years, as printed in Figure 3.

Sex
g/dL

Allowed range: 1–6 g/dL

Quick picks

Enter grams per litre. Each extra g/L lowers the linear predictor.

points

Allowed range: 0–6 points

Quick picks

From 0 to 6. One point for independence in each of bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, continence, and feeding.

de Jong L et al. Multidimensional approach for predicting 30-day mortality in patients with a hip fracture. J Bone Joint Surg Am. DOI: 10.2106/JBJS.23.01397. PMID: 39836737. Figure 3: linear predictor = −2.69102004 + (albumin g/L × −0.04421566) + (age in years × 0.03059813) + (gender × −1.01157133) + (dementia × 0.36026082) + (Katz-ADL × −0.08530769) + (ASA 4 × 0.85617275) + (residence in a nursing home × 0.72578208). Gender is male 0 and female 1. Dementia, ASA 4, and nursing-home residence are 0 for no and 1 for yes. Katz-ADL is 0 to 6, with 1 point for independence in each of bathing, dressing, toileting, transferring, continence, and feeding. ASA 4 is a severe incapacitating disease process that is a constant threat to life. Figure 3 prints predicted 30-day mortality (%) = EXP(linear predictor) / (1 + EXP(linear predictor)). The results section reports that quantity as a percent: the testing-cohort mean predicted mortality was 8.8%. The value returned here is 100 times the printed ratio. (2025)
