In this edition of The Senior Care Pharmacist, there is further evidence presented, and the importance of this information cannot be challenged. However, the question remains: why has effective remediation of this risk consistently defeated the clinical community around the world?

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...
