Excerpt

We strongly recommend that caregivers for fractures stop classifying fractures as high- or low-trauma, fragility fractures and provide the same care for fractures now mislabeled as “high trauma” as all other fractures. The study by Leslie and colleagues in the current issue of Osteoporosis International adds to the evidence that attempts to classify the degree of trauma deprive a large number of patients with fractures of appropriate evaluation and preventive treatment [1]. …
