Clinical Outcomes of a Coordinator-Based Fracture Liaison Service for Hip Fractures in Korea

The coordinator-based FLS service reduced the length of hospital stay and time from admission to surgery in elderly hip fracture patients, while also lowering the risk of postoperative mortality and refracture. It increased the prescription rate of osteoporosis medications and can improve patients' nutritional status. However, further research is needed to assess functional improvement.

Abstract

The coordinator-based FLS service reduced the length of hospital stay and time from admission to surgery in elderly hip fracture patients, while also lowering the risk of postoperative mortality and refracture. It increased the prescription rate of osteoporosis medications and can improve patients' nutritional status. However, further research is needed to assess functional improvement.
