Randomized Trial of Osteoporosis Intervention Strategies in Hip Fracture Patients

OsteoporosisHip Fracture

Patients with hip fractures have suffered the most devastating consequence of osteoporosis; and yet, they are rarely if ever tested or treated for the condition, even though they remain at high risk of recurrent fracture. We hypothesize that, compared with usual care, an allied health professional-run osteoporosis service (case management) will be able to increase testing and treatment of osteoporosis in patients at high risk of fracture.

Controlled Trial to Increase Detection and Treatment of Osteoporosis in Older Patients With a Wrist...

OsteoporosisWrist Fractures

The primary objective of this proposed research is to improve the quality of care for patients who present to the Emergency Department with osteoporosis and a fracture of the wrist, by increasing the use of proven efficacious osteoporosis treatment. This is the primary study outcome, and it is defined as starting any one of hormone therapy, a bisphosphonate, raloxifene, or calcitonin within 6 months of a fracture of the wrist. The study hypothesis is that a quality improvement intervention (with multiple components that include a notification system for primary care physicians, patient-specific reminders, locally generated treatment guidelines endorsed by opinion leaders, and patient education and counseling) will lead to increased use of proven efficacious osteoporosis treatments in patients eligible for secondary prevention. This hypothesis will be tested by comparing the intervention with usual care controls, in a prospective nonrandomized controlled trial.
