E-Mail Today, the International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) and Osteoporosis Canada (OC) are pleased to announce the inclusion of 42 Fracture Liaison Services (FLS) from the Osteoporosis Canada FLS Registry on the Capture the Fracture The integration of the Canadian FLS on the Capture the Fracture ® global map follows a collaboration agreement in which the two organizations underline their shared goal of improving clinical outcomes and preventing recurrent fractures in patients who have sustained fractures due to osteoporosis. Worldwide, approximately 80% of patients who have already sustained an osteoporosis-related fracture do not receive the care they need to prevent further costly, and often severely debilitating, fragility fractures. Fracture Liaison Services (FLS) represent the most effective strategy to tackle this enormous care gap. In an FLS, a multidisciplinary care team, with the help of a dedicated FLS coordinator, ensures that patients are identified, treated and monitored following a fracture. This results in fewer re-fractures and lower mortality rates, while reducing future costs due to hospital admissions, operations and care home admissions.
