Abstract
|
|
|
The prevention and treatment of fragility fractures is evolving continuously. Adequate fracture care should involve treating the fracture itself as well as the underlying bone disease. Although effective treatments of osteoporosis are available, a large proportion of patients with fragility fractures are not prescribed anti-osteoporotic medications after their injury. Recent advances in diagnostic tools and medications allow for a more effective and comprehensive treatment of fragility fractures.
