MANAGEMENT OF FRAGILITY FRACTURES IN THE ELDERLY: FROM PREVENTION TO SURGICAL INTERVENTION

Abstract
Fragility fractures in the elderly represent a major public health concern due to their association with increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare burden. This article provides a comprehensive overview of current strategies for managing such fractures, emphasizing prevention, surgical intervention, and rehabilitation. Preventive approaches include fall risk reduction, osteoporosis treatment, and cost-effective public health initiatives. Surgical techniques such as total hip arthroplasty, hemiarthroplasty, and minimally invasive fixation are discussed in the context of clinical outcomes, timing, and technological advancements like robotic assistance. Rehabilitation is highlighted as a vital component, incorporating early mobilization and a multidisciplinary team approach to restore function and prevent recurrence. The integration of these strategies into a cohesive, evidence-based framework is essential for improving patient outcomes and quality of life in the aging population.
