事实证明,元旦秋天改变了生活

Share:

58岁的护士黛安·阿尔德(Diane Alder)在元旦跌倒时手腕和前臂骨折后震惊地发现自己患有骨质疏松症。尽管过着积极的生活方式,但奥尔德以前从未骨折过,最初以为自己的受伤是由一次不幸的事故造成的。

在康复期间,骨折联络处(FLS)联系了奥尔德安排骨密度扫描。这项由ACC资助的服务对Alder有很大帮助,为她提供了有关骨质疏松症以及如何控制病情的宝贵信息。

奥尔德的事故发生在她从狗的碗里溢出的水上滑倒,导致她摔倒并摔断手腕时。尽管受伤带来了痛苦和不便,但奥尔德在三周后重返护士工作,尽管工作量很小。

骨折联络服务成立于2022年6月,被公认为一项宝贵的社区资产,获得了国际骨质疏松基金会的 “捕捉骨折” 计划的银星评级认证。该服务旨在防止重复骨折,识别骨质疏松症,并减少该区域内的跌倒和骨折。

自启动以来,该服务已在塔拉纳基地区发现了785名年龄在50岁以上的脆弱性骨折患者。其中,530人收到了治疗建议,超过57%的人在发现后的16周内开始了骨质疏松症特异性治疗。

骨质疏松症是一种慢性疾病,会削弱骨骼,使骨骼变脆并增加骨折的风险。2023年,ACC接受了来自65岁以上成年人的超过17.3万份新的跌倒相关伤害索赔,耗资3.45亿美元的康复援助。ACC伤害预防负责人詹姆斯·惠特克表示,如果不采取预防措施,到2035年,这些伤害的损失预计将达到7.2亿美元。
