Osteoporosis: The silent modern plaque

Osteoporosis is a disease in which the density and quality of the bone is reduced,

resulting in enhanced risk of bone fracture. Osteoporosis is very common

affecting about one out of three women and one out of five men worldwide.

The loss of bone occurs "silently" and frequently there are no symptoms until

the first fracture occurs, e.g. in the wrist, spine or hip. Fractures can have

serious consequences, including chronic pain, body deformity, hospitalization,

operations and loss of independence. Thus, significantly reducing the

individual’s quality of life and in worst cases it can result in death. Today it is

known that death rate due to hip fracture is higher compared to breast cancer

related mortality among women.

Osteoporosis: High economic burden

The total cost of osteoporosis related fracture is estimated to be 3.5% of the total

global health care spending. While the burden of that cost originates from the

acute management of fracture only 4.7% of the total cost is from preventive and

primary pharmacologic treatment interventions. Within the European Union

the economic burden of fractures has been estimated to be €36 billion annually

Preventive and treatable measures of osteoporosis

The good news is that osteoporosis is a treatable condition, thus, many fractures

can be avoided. However, there is still a serious treatment gap, mostly due

to insufficient case finding of individuals at risk of fracture, who also would

benefits the most from primary treatment interventions. Therefore, by using

the Expeda Osteoporosis Advisor, we do not only calculate the 10-years risk of

fracture, but also present our customers with individualized specialist – quality

level advice concerning prevention and medical treatment recommendations

for osteoporosis. With the aid of our adviser the individual is in control

over his/her own bone health, ultimately providing improved quality of life for

individuals at risk for osteoporosis and fractures with immediate positive

economic impact, not only for the individual but also the society in general.
