Challenges and strategies in management of osteoporosis and fragility fracture care during COVID-19 pandemic	2020-06-02		.txt	text/plain	3389	196	46	AIMS: We assess the challenges and strategies used in the management of osteoporosis and fragility fracture care during the COVID-19 pandemic. RESULTS: Osteoporosis and fragility fractures management has been hampered by lock down and infection transmission strategies used to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. CONCLUSION: Osteoporosis and fragility fractures in elderly individuals pose a real challenge for an appropriate diagnosis and management, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Hip and spine fractures in the elderly are associated with increased mortality, reduction in quality of life, and functional limitations along with substantial economic burden to the health sector which further compromises the COVID -19 related treatment [5] .Therapeutic interventions that mitigate fragility fracture in era of COVID-19 are, therefore, essential for reducing the consequences in the future. As recommended by the BGS guidelines, a multidisciplinary approach still remains the key in management of these fragility hip fracture patients during the COVID-19 pandemic [18] .	./cache/cord-348051-o1hxoasp.txt	./txt/cord-348051-o1hxoasp.txt
