RESTORE: REducing Future fractureS and Improving ouTcOmes of fRagility fracturE
University of Alabama at Birmingham
Summary
RESTORE tests whether Augmented-FLS, where patients are contacted by a patient navigator (serving as the liaison) and referred to a bone health provider, is better than Enhanced Usual Care, which includes patient and PCP education and activation. We also aim to determine the influence of age, race, ethnicity, sex, poverty level, geographic region, and timing of entry into the trial after a fracture on the effectiveness of the two strategies.
