Screening for primary prevention of fragility fractures: how much time does it take?

Providing preventive care can be time consuming, and potential benefits have to be weighed against risks and costs. Dr Nick Pimlott interviews Drs Roland Grad, Donna Reynolds, and Guylène Thériault about their work on a new guideline on screening for fragility fractures and how the concept of “time needed to treat” is gaining importance in guideline development. Read their Prevention in Practice review article in the August 2023 issue of Canadian Family Physician in English (https://www.cfp.ca/content/69/8/537) or French (https://www.cfp.ca/content/69/8/e165).
