Abstract:Background:
Osteoporotic fractures signal severely compromised bone strength and are associated with a greatly increased risk of refracture. Despite the availability of effective and safe medications that reduce fracture risk, 70-80% of patients are inadequately investigated or treated for osteoporosis following an initial fracture. This protocol describes a cluster randomised controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of an integrated model of care on osteoporosis management in primary care.
