The FRAIL-model: predicting the 2-year risk of hip fracture
The Fracture Risk Assessment in Long-term Care (FRAIL) model is developed to specifically identify nursing home residents at risk for hip fractures. 

The c-index differs in men (0.69) and women (0.71).

The calculated 2-year risk of hip fracture is: ... %

Set all parameters to calculate prediction.

The outcomes of the model could be used to screen nursing home residents for fracture risk and to target intervention strategies.
