Primary Care Management of Osteoporosis in Older Women

Recruitingn/aAges 70 Years - anyAllBradford Institute for Health Research

In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The Investigators aim to improve primary-care for older women with osteoporosis. Older women they spoke with previously felt unseen, unimportant, unheard and uninformed. These women felt that bone/joint health was an important issue for women aged 70+. Osteoporosis is a disease that makes bones more breakable and can lead to significant pain, disability and death, costing approximately ยฃ4.4 billion a year in the United Kingdom. Women are four times more likely to have osteoporosis than men and suffer fractures earlier. Osteoporosis care is poor in primary care even though good guidelines are available. The Investigators will work with older women and healthcare professionals to help guide the research. They have already looked at published research and will build on this. They will identify what is important for both older women and professionals to inform the first interview question
