Injuries and accidents, musculoskeletal
This information is provided directly by researchers and we recognise that it isn't always easy to understand. We are working with researchers to improve the accessibility of this information.
The iFraP study team have developed a web-based visual tool called a ‘decision-support tool’ to support Fracture Liaison Service (FLS) healthcare professionals to know when to suggest treatments and aid conversations with patients about risk and to make decisions, for instance about starting osteoporosis medicines. The team have also developed training for healthcare professionals to help them use the tool and to ensure that the information they are giving is understandable, that they address patient concerns, and that they give clear, consistent information during the appointment. The decision-support tool and training package together are called the ‘iFraP intervention’. The iFraP study will look at whether the iFraP intervention makes decision-making about osteoporosis medicines easier, and whether it is cost-effective, acceptable and practical to deliver.
Start dates may differ between countries and research sites. The research team are responsible for keeping the information up-to-date.
