简要总结
The goal of this controlled before and after study is to evaluate a new patient pathway for patients 65 years and older who have suffered a fall injury.
The main questions the study aims to answer are whether this preventive initiative with improved care coordination reduces risk of subsequent hip fractures, admittance to nursing homes or death.
Researchers will compare two boroughs in Oslo who implemented the new patient pathway with the 13 other boroughs who did not reorganize their follow-up, but continued their care as usual.
