Popis: | In order to reduce the incidence of recurrent fractures in patients that had already experienced low-energy (osteoporotic) fracture, the International Osteoporosis Foundation initiated the program «Capture the fracture». Established Best Practice Framework represents 13 standards to evaluate the effectiveness of the centers for the prevention of recurrent fractures, organized in different countries. In 2012 the Russian Association on Osteoporosis started the project PROMETHEUS [Creation the system to prevent recurrence of fractures in patients with osteoporosis]. In order to implement this program in the city of Yaroslavl we conducted a pilot project to establish a center for the prevention of recurrent fractures in patients who have received osteoporotic fracture. In this article we assess the effectiveness of the work of this center with the use of international standards, identify key problems and propose solutions. |
