Adjusted primary outcome and sensitivity analysis. Patient characteristics included age, sex, and body mass index. Surgical characteristics included type of fracture and surgery. Emotional status encompasses anxiety and depression. Preoperative pain was assessed at rest and during activities. Cognitive function was evaluated using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Baseline risk factors included MoCA scores, baseline C-reactive protein values, and baseline hemoglobin levels. Sensitivity analysis was performed using an alternate definition of the primary outcome which was met if a CAM-identified POD was combined with a DRS-R-98 score greater than 15. CSF, cerebrospinal fluid; POD, postoperative delirium; RR, risk ratio; CAM, confusion assessment method
