Brief Summary

Researchers plan a 2022 follow-up of medical records data to investigate fracture incidence and survival for 1248 women, born 1902-1931, in a comparative fracture prevention study with 435 participants from an intervention area and 813 participants from two control areas. In 2022 researchers want to assess patient records data in intervention and control areas and compare A) Survival B) Risk factors for osteoporotic fractures (wrist, upper arm, vertebral, pelvic, hip) C) physical activity, exercise and drugs that affect fracture risk.

Study Arms (2)

Intervention (the Vislanda district)

EXPERIMENTAL

435 women living in Vislanda responded to a detailed survey and participated in physical exercise and received lifestyle advice on diet, smoking, walking and outdoor activities. Recommendations to use calcium and Vitamin D and do exercise at home by written instructions. Home visit by rehab team when needed. Group training with a physiotherapist. Gymnastics group and walking group. Walking aides and instructions of anti-slip protection. Home environment risk reduction was offered.

Behavioral: Prevention of hip fractures

Control (the Tingsryd/Emmaboda districts)

NO INTERVENTION

415 women living in Tingsryd and 395 women living in Emmaboda responded to the same detailed survey as the 435 women living in Vislanda.
