This new open access edition supported by the Fragility Fracture Network aims at giving the widest possible dissemination on fragility fracture (especially hip fracture) management and notably in countries where this expertise is sorely needed. It has been extensively revised and updated by the experts of this network to provide a unique and reliable content in one single volume. Throughout the book, attention is given to the difficult question of how to provide best practice in countries where the discipline of geriatric medicine is not well established and resources for secondary prevention are scarce. The revised and updated chapters on the epidemiology of hip fractures, osteoporosis, sarcopenia, surgery, anaesthesia, medical management of frailty, peri-operative complications, rehabilitation and nursing are supplemented by six new chapters. These include an overview of the multidisciplinary approach to fragility fractures and new contributions on pre-hospital care, treatment in the emergency room, falls prevention, nutrition and systems for audit. The reader will have an exhaustive overview and will gain essential, practical knowledge on how best to manage fractures in elderly patients and how to develop clinical systems that do so reliably.

An inspiring memoir from a woman who suffered from a stigma of shame and disgrace, Kadima: A story of overcoming secrets, sickness, and shame is a must-read for anyone who longs to know they are redeemed by grace. • Do you struggle with unforgiveness and feelings of rejection? • Have you fallen victim to the comparison trap and the “I’m not good enough” lie? • Did you grow up in a dysfunctional, yet Christian home? • Have you struggled with what it truly means to live a life that glorifies Jesus? • Do you worry you are broken beyond repair? In her twenty-first century “Amazing Grace” self-help memoir of redemption, Toni S. Mason shares her been-there done-that life with candor, sincerity, and rare vulnerability. Rejecting a lifestyle of drugs and alcohol, affairs, and recovering from a near-fatal illness, Toni reveals what it took for her to renew her Christian faith, turn around her marriage, and create an enriching Christian home for her family. Kadima speaks especially to women who are challenged by the temptations of college and new careers and those who struggle with starting over. Toni’s personal journey resonates deeply with anyone who has ever tried to live a life of faith while overcoming a shameful past. Learn how she harnessed her unique interpretation and personal experience of scripture and biblical principles to build a life of love, joy, and gratitude. Kadima will show you how you can transform your life, too.
