Osteoporotic hip fractures are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in older age. Patients with this fracture are at high risk of further fracture, it can be reduced by appropriate metabolic therapy. However, only 30% of patients after a hip fracture receive basic treatment appropriate calcium and vitamin D, only 10-15% receive complementary metabolic therapy more drugs prevent bone resorption, or bone-building drugs as recommended in the literature, the prevention of further fractures. studies conducted in the past have proven, multi-disciplinary team of dedicated financial institution may increase appropriate treatment and improve the quality of care in these patients.
Previous data in our institution has shown that 84% of patients with hip fractures received calcium and vitamin D during hospitalization, but only 47% of the patients came to the metabolic clinic. Moreover, of the patients who came to the metabolic clinic, only 46% were put on complementary metabolic therapy, mostly due to a lack of sufficient vitamin D level. In the present study investigators attempt to treat patients without physical attendance at the metabolic clinic.
