摘要
Four hundred and thirty-seven patients with femoral neck fractures were studied to determine the value of serum albumin estimations on admission. Serum albumin is a good predictor of mortality, and patients with low levels should be given additional nutritional support. We found that the serum albumin level is not useful in predicting deep wound infection. The infection rate of 3% does not justify the use of antibiotic prophylaxis in general.
