ABSTRACT Background and Aims Hospital length of stay (LOS) is a key indicator for resource allocation, bed management, and discharge planning in orthopedic trauma care. Given the substantial heterogeneity of LOS across fracture types and the limitations of conventional approaches, this study aimed to develop and validate fracture‐specific machine ...
