Osteosarcopenia, the presence of osteopenia/osteoporosis and sarcopenia. The prevalence of osteosarcopenia in older adults with failing was 37% and associated with higher rate of death. Diagnosis of osteosarcopenia consists of describing medical history of fractures, providing x-ray of the spine (if it is needed) and bone densitometry, calculation of Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX), evaluating muscle strength, mass, function. The most common exam which is used to measure bone mineral density (BMD) is dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA or DEXA). Screening using the FRAX is recommended in all postmenopausal women and mеn over 50 in order to identify individuals with high probability of fractures. It is recommended to diagnose osteoporosis in patients with fragility fracture of large bones of the skeleton. Diagnosis of sarcopenia is consist of measures for three parameters: muscle strength, muscle quantity/quality and physical performance as an indicator of severity. Muscle strength can be measured with carpal dynamometry. Muscle mass can be evaluated dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (program «Whole body»). Muscle function can be evaluated with short physical performance battery (SPPB) tests.

To reduce the number of osteoporotic fractures in the world in recent years, — Fracture Liaison Service has been created. Since 2019, the development of a register of patients included in the Secondary Fracture Prevention named «Prometheus» has begun in Russia.Materials and methods. An information system for storing, searching and processing information has been created, and a registration card has been developed. Six FLS participate in the register management. As of 10.03.2021, data on 387 patients were introduced in the register.Results. Among the included patients, 46.25% received a fracture of the proximal femur, 20.41% — of the vertebral bodies and 16.80% of the proximal humerus, the rest had fractures of other localizations. The risk of fractures was assessed in all patients. A high risk of major osteoporotic fractures according to FRAX was determined in 160 (43.24%) people. Two-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was performed in 152 (39.28%) patients, and osteoporosis was detected in 103 (67.76%), osteopenia — in 42 (27.63%) patients. The risk of falls was assessed in 100% of the included patients, and the risk of falls was determined to be high in 343 (88.63%) patients. Evaluation of various laboratory parameters to find the causes of secondary osteoporosis was performed in most patients. After consultation with the FLS doctor, anti-osteoporotic drugs were prescribed to 241 (64.27%) people. Among the rest, 70 (52.24%) patients had contra-indications and 31 (23.13%) people needed further examination.Conclusions. Thus, the use of the register allows you to evaluate all the main sections of the organization of assistance within the FLS and compare them with international standards to identify «gaps» and improve the work of the service.","PeriodicalId":256357,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Geriatric Medicine","volume":"53 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124761279","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even with a well-organized system of medical care, up to 12-17% of patients die within the first year after injury, and the long-term risk of death doubles. Specially designed population-based studies in the Russian Federation have shown a high incidence of hip fractures in patients at the age of 50 and older. However, there is currently no unified system of medical care organization for all regions of Russia, which allows hospitalization and operation of patients with hip fractures during the first hours after trauma. Hip fracture in an elderly person is an absolute indication for the hospitalization. However most patients have severe comorbidities, osteoporosis, an increased risk of falls and mortality because of any reason. The main surgical treatments for hip fractures include osteosynthesis of the fracture or hip arthroplasty. It is well known that after the occurrence of any fragility fracture the risk of subsequent fractures increases by 2-3 times. To ensure the continuity of patient management, provide prescription of anti-osteoporotic drugs and long-term follow-up of patients it is necessary to manage them within the special Fracture Liaison Services (FLS). The article is devoted to the organization of medical care in patients of older age groups who have received hip fractures. A review of modern approaches to the treatment and organization of care for elderly patients with hip fractures is based on the methodological recommendations «Complex measures aimed at preventing falls and fractures in the elderly» developed in the framework of the federal project «The Older Generation», the draft national clinical guidelines «Fractures of the proximal femur», as well as the results of our own research.","PeriodicalId":256357,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Geriatric Medicine","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125294705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examined 4308 subjects (30% of men) aged 65 to 107 years (mean age 78 ± 8 years) in 11 regions of the Russian Federation, who were divided into 3 age groups (65-74, 75-84 and ≥85 years old). All participants underwent comprehensive geriatric assessment, which consisted of two stages: 1) survey on a specially designed questionnaire; 2) physical examination.Results. The frequency of falls over the past year was 30%, including 25,7% — in subjects aged 65-74 yrs, 29,8% — 75-84 yrs, 37,3% — ≥85 yrs (p for trend <0,001). Of these, 62% of participants fell 1 time, 38% — 2 times or more. With the same frequency, the subjects fell at home (41%) and on the street (42%), 17% of subjects fell both at home and on the street. A history of low-energy fractures was found in 17% of the participants, among which the most frequent (63%) were fractures of the radius. Univariate regression analysis with sex and age (as a discret variable) adjustment, where the falls in the past year were considered as the dependent variable, and GS as independent one, demonstrated that all GS were associated with falls in the past year with odds ratios (ORs) ranging from 1,25 to 3,13. Multivariate regression analysis with age and sex adjustment showed that independent predictors of falls were female gender (ORs 1,51; 95% confidence interval 1,26-1,82; р<0,001) and 6 GS (malnutrition, depression, urinary and fecal incontinence, chronic pain and dependence in instrumental activities in daily life) with a 1,3-2,4 times increase of falls risk.Conclusion.
