Study Summary

This trial will focus on improving evidence-based osteoporosis diagnosis and treatment for women 50 and older who have suffered a fragility fracture. It will compare the current situation to an optimal one and propose interventions to improve care. The effectiveness of these interventions will be evaluated using a randomized control design.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for women aged 50 or older who have had a fragility fracture, can understand the study information and consent form, agree to participate voluntarily, and are able to complete questionnaires over the phone. It excludes those already in a clinical trial for osteoporosis medication, unable to grasp the programme's purpose, or with fractures due to severe trauma or disease.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The ROCQ programme aims to improve osteoporosis care by evaluating current diagnosis and treatment rates after fragility fractures against an ideal scenario. Interventions include educational materials and videos for patients and healthcare professionals. The effectiveness of these interventions will be measured using a randomized control design.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on documentation and video interventions rather than medications, traditional side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience discomfort from discussing their medical condition or changes in their management of osteoporosis.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
The average 5-year, 10-year, 15-year, and 20-year probabilities of a fragility fracture by age, site of previous fragility fracture, and type of ROCQ intervention.

The present diagnostic and treatment rates of osteoporosis 6 months after a fragility fracture
Secondary outcome measures
Assess health utility index (EQ-5D) after a fragility fracture.
Changes of modifiable risk factors for osteoporosis 12 months after the intervention
Health care resource utilization associated with specific types of fragility fracture and recurrent fractures.
