Course Description
Almost 53 million Americans have osteoporosis are at risk due to low bone mineral density (BMD). The conventional approach to preventing fragility fractures primarily focuses on improving BMD with osteoporosis medications, even though most osteoporosis drugs do not prevent primary fractures, and more than half of all patients discontinue bisphosphonate treatment within a year. Using an evidence-based, whole-person approach, clinicians can think beyond BMD, teach patients the information and skills to grow stronger bones, reduce fracture risk and help them live vibrant, active lives well into old age.
