Condition: Fragility Fracture · Sponsor: Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University
With the aging of the world population, osteoporosis and fragility fractures have become global public health concerns. It has been estimated the population of people ≥60 years of age will increase from 229 million (16.2%) in 2017 to 479 million (35.1%) by 2050 in China. Because age is an important predictor of osteoporosis and fragility fracture, the incidence of fragility fracture has increased dramatically in China over the past decades. Timely treatment of osteoporosis is an effective way to decrease additional fracture risk among patients with fragility fractures, but anti-osteoporosis treatment rate is relatively low in China. Effective fracture prevention intervention is urgently needed in China. As a potential way to achieve effective risk communication, shared decision-making allows patients to be active participants in the management of osteoporosis. The investigators designed a multifaceted intervention, which was named as "Precise Education + Shared Decision-Making" program for the secondary prevention of fragility fractures based on behavioral theories, and assessed the effectiveness for fracture prevention using a pilot cluster randomized controlled trial among several hospitals in China. The aim of this pilot study is to test the acceptability and feasibility as well as preliminary efficacy of this program in patients with fragility fractures.
