Simple phone calls and info packets could stop the next bone break
NCT ID NCT01780012
Summary
This study tested whether a simple education program could help women over 50 get the right care after a wrist or arm fracture to prevent future, more serious breaks. It involved 436 women who had recently broken a bone from a minor fall. Half received information about osteoporosis and reminders to talk to their doctor, while the other half received usual care, to see which group was more likely to get a bone scan or treatment.
