Abstrakt: | Yearly 16 000 osteoporosis related hip fractures occur in Sweden. They cause suffering for patients and high costs for society. Subsequent fractures can be reduced with osteoporosis diagnostics and treatment. 4 322 patients from two hospitals using Fracture Liaisson Services in Sweden were included to identify the rate of osteoporosis diagnostics and treatment during the first year after a hip fracture. Data between 2010-01-01 and 2018-12-31 were included from the Swedish National Hip Fracture Registry (Rikshöft). 99.2 % of all patients underwent FRAX risk assessment and DEXA was conducted on 17.3 % of patients. Women were more frequently examined with DEXA than men (21% vs 10.2 %). 6% received medical osteoporosis treatment after the fracture, women were treated more often than men (7% vs 4%). Conclusions: less than 10% received drug therapy after the first year after the hip fracture. Men underwent diagnostics and received treatment at a lower rate than women. |
