fracture possibility; BMD tests; intervention threshold
The aim of this study was to optimize the use of BMD measurements in case finding strategies. The use of clinical risk factors with and without BMD was explored in a random sample of the Sheffield female population greater than or equal to75 years of age. The use of clinical risk factors alone could identify women well above or well below a threshold of fracture risk. BMD assessment can be confined to a minority of women (similar to20%) in whom the measurement aids in prognostication of fracture.
