The authors have previously shown that low admission Norton scale scores (ANSS) are associated with postoperative complications other than pressure ulcers following hip fracture and spine fracture surgery in elderly patients. The purpose of this retrospective, cross-sectional study study was to determine whether low ANSS are associated with postoperative complications other than pressure ulcers following elective total hip arthroplasty (THA) in elderly patients. The medical charts of consecutive elderly (older than 65 years) patients admitted between February 2008 and November 2010 were studied for acute renal failure, cardiovascular events, confusion, pneumonia, pressure ulcers, urinary infection, urinary retention, venous thromboembolism, wound infection, and other complications. The final cohort included 166 patients (108 [65.1%] women; aged 75.2\u00b16.4 years). Overall, 24 (14.5%) patients had low (16 or less) ANSS. Patients with low ANSS had significantly more postoperative complications other than pressure ulcers compared with patients with high ANSS (0.5\u00b10.7 vs 0.2\u00b10.4, respectively;\n            <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n            =.018).
