ABSTRACT Background Long‐term opioid therapy (LTOT) after hip fracture surgery is a common postoperative complication associated with adverse outcomes, yet tools to identify at‐risk patients among opioid‐naïve older adults are lacking. This study aimed to develop and internally validate a parsimonious model to predict LTOT following hip fracture ...
