13 Hip fracture risk (% per 10 Years) Age & Risk of Fracture with Low BMD AGE Risk increases with age BMD T-score Kanis et al, Osteopor Int 2001

14 Two Tools for Fracture Risk Assessment These tools incorporate other risk factors for fracture in addition to BMD 1. OC Guidelines tool available at: 2. FRAX tool available at: 3. National Osteoporosis Foundation guidelines:

15 Femoral neck T-score Calculating 10-Year Absolute Fracture Risk for Postmenopausal Women: CAROC Increases to the next risk category Low risk (<10%) Prior fragility fracture after age 40 Prolonged corticosteroid therapy* Moderate risk (10-20%) High risk (> 20%) Prior hip or vertebral or >1 nonvertebral fragility fracture Age (years) Lumbar spine or total hip T-score -2.5: consider the individual to be at least at moderate risk Calibrated using Canadian fracture data and have been directly validated in Canadians 2 *At least three months cumulative use during the preceding year at a prednisone-equivalent dose 7.5 mg daily 1. Papaioannou A, et al. CMAJ. 2010;182: Leslie WD, et al. J Bone Miner Res. 2009;24:

16 High 10-Year Fracture Risk Those with: Hip Fractures Vertebral Fractures >2 fragility fractures >1 fragility fracture + steroid use

17 Femoral neck T-score CAROC Fracture Risk Assessment CAROC Assessment Tool Stratification Women (treatment naive) Most patients >age 75 are at Moderate to High risk of Fracture Low risk (<10%) based on age alone Moderate risk (10-20%) High risk (> 20%) Age (years) Hip / vertebral fracture High risk (> 20%) > 1 fragility fracture * At least three months cumulative use during the preceding year at a prednisone-equivalent dose 7.5 mg daily Papaioannou A, et al CMAJ 2010.

18 2010 Treatment Guidelines Low risk (<10%) Lifestyle Modification Moderate risk Lifestyle? Treat High risk (>20%) Treat Papaioannou A, et al. CMAJ. 2010;182:

19 Moderate Risk Treat if: Over 65 with wrist fracture Lumbar spine << Femoral neck T-score Medications (e.g. AI, ADT) Conditions (e.g. RA) Falls Patient preference

20 Consequences of Falls in Osteoporotic Patients Falls are a major contributor to fractures: Over 90% of hip fractures are the result of a fall Up to 14% of falls result in hip fractures Age 80 Age Grisso JA et al. N Engl J Med 1991; 324:

21 Pharmocological therapy First Line Therapies with Evidence for Fracture Prevention in Postmenopausal Women* Type of Fracture Antiresorptive Therapy Bisphosphonates Denosumab Raloxifene Estrogen** (Hormone Alendronate Risedronate Zoledronic therapy) Acid Bone Formation Therapy Teriparatide Vertebral Hip Non- Vertebral In clinical trials, non-vertebral fractures are a composite endpoint including hip, femur, pelvis, tibia, humerus, radius, and clavicle. * For postmenopausal women, indicates first line therapies and Grade A recommendation. For men requiring treatment, alendronate, risedronate, and zoledronic acid can be used as first line therapies for prevention of fractures [Grade D]. ** Estrogen or hormone therapy can be used as first line therapy in women with menopausal symptoms.

22 Special Considerations for the Geriatrics Population Falls risk Sarcopenia Poor Nutrition Poor Renal Function Multiple Comorbidities and Medications How many times has she fallen in the past 12 months?

23 Fall Prevention Strategies Assessment of fall risk: on admission/after a fall Patient education on risk of falls Environmental modification: reduction of fall hazards Reduce use of restraints for patients in care Adequate vitamin D Medication review Exercise: Tai chi, balance and strength training Hip protectors Compliant flooring Registered Nurse Association of Ontario (RNAO) Prevention of Falls and Falls injuries in Older Adults Recommendations.

29 CURRENT CONTROVERSIES

30 CBC News closed with: People should consult their physicians before taking more than 800IU of vitamin D

31 CBS News: Vitamin D supplements won t help bones in healthy adults

32 Vitamin D Oversimplification of action of vitamin D Adequacy aiming for serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels: 75nmol/L (2010 OC guidelines) 50nmol/L (IOM guidelines for healthy adults) Reid meta-analysis: baseline mean serum 25- hydroxyvitamin D level > 50nmol/L in 15 studies Canadian Guidelines: 400IU 2000IU a day is safe
