The 'Break with (Re)fractures' campaign was created with the aim of avoiding refractures in patients with fragility.
Currently, fragility fractures and second fractures are the fourth most impactful chronic disease in Spain . Some studies estimate that in approximately seven years, their number will increase by 30%. Thus, on the occasion of World Osteoporosis Day, which is commemorated on October 20, the campaign 'Break with (Re)fractures' has been launched . The objective of this campaign is to raise awareness about the importance of preventing second fragility fractures, a serious problem that affects millions of people in Spain .
The initiative is promoted by the Spanish Foundation for Osteoporosis and Bone Diseases (FHOEMO), the Spanish Society for Bone Research and Mineral Metabolism
(SEIOMM) and the Spanish Association for Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis (Aecosar)
