The impact of a fracture liaison service with in-hospital anti-osteoporosis treatment on subsequent hip fracture and mortality rates—a single-center retrospective study
The implementation of an in-hospital FLS facilitated prompt initiation of anti-osteoporosis treatment following a HF, increased follow-up and treatment rates, and resulted in a 48% reduction in subsequent HF risk and a 29% reduction in mortality rates.
