The management of osteoporosis-related fractures: a survey of orthopaedic surgeons' practice.

B Pal1, J Morris, B Muddu.   

Abstract

A questionnaire survey of 70 orthopaedic surgeons regarding their policy for the management of osteoporosis-related fractures revealed that, in the main, UK Department of Health guidelines on osteoporosis are not followed uniformly, although Royal College of Physicians guidelines regarding rehabilitation are met more frequently. A written policy or agreed protocol with an osteoporosis service may potentially benefit a large number of patients and reduce future fracture risks.
