Since 2002, there has been a paradigm shift in the prevention and treatment of osteoporotic fractures. The focus now is on preventing fragility fractures and their associated complications rather than on treating low bone mineral density. Evidence shows that many patients with fractures do not undergo appropriate assessment or treatment. It is important to have an integrated approach in the overall patient management in order to address this care gap for high-risk patients. ©2011, Editrice Kurtis.

Abstract
Since 2002, there has been a paradigm shift in the prevention and treatment of osteoporotic fractures. The focus now is on preventing fragility fractures and their associated complications rather than on treating low bone mineral density. Evidence shows that many patients with fractures do not undergo appropriate assessment or treatment. It is important to have an integrated approach in the overall patient management in order to address this care gap for high-risk patients. ©2011, Editrice Kurtis.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
