Risk factors in elderly female patients for refracture within two years following surgery for fragility fractures: a prospective observational study

Preventing postoperative refracture in elderly women with fragility fractures requires a systematic approach. Clinical practice should incorporate comprehensive geriatric assessments, routinely including fall risk evaluation, frailty screening, and nutritional status assessment, while emphasizing and leveraging family support systems. It is recommended to integrate fall prevention education, frailty intervention, nutritional support, and family involvement into standard fracture liaison services, forming multidimensional, individualized management strategies to effectively reduce refracture risk.
