Guidelines for doctors managing osteoporosis in the Asia-Pacific region vary widely. We compared 18 guidelines similarities and differences five key areas. then used a structured consensus process to develop clinical standards of care diagnosis management improving quality care. Minimum assessment are needed (AP) inform practice (CPGs) improve present framework these describe its development. conducted comparative analysis existing CPGs AP using "5IQ" model (identification, investigation,...
Purpose: To compare the radiographic characteristics of femoral geometry between bisphosphonate-related atypical fracture (BPAFF) and bisphosphonate-naïve (BPnAFF).Methods: A case-control study was conducted at Police General hospital in Bangkok, Thailand, from January 2012 to December 2023; medical records all available radiographs hip fractures were reviewed. Atypical (AFF) defined using American Society for Bone Mineral Research (ASBMR) 2013 criteria. BPAFF identified patients with a...
The purpose of the study was to assess effectiveness Fracture Liaison service (FLS) in preventing secondary fracture and decreasing 1-year mortality rate after osteoporotic hip fracture, patients at Police General Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand.A prospective cohort conducted. We studied male female patients, 50 years age older, who presented with a fragility around due low energy trauma were admitted participating PGH's from April 1, 2014-March 30, 2015. sample size 75 follow up time 1 year....
The aim of this study was to describe the current pathways care for patients with a fracture hip in five low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) South Asia (Nepal Sri Lanka) Southeast (Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines).The World Health Organization Service Availability Readiness Assessment tool used collect data on fractures Malaysia, Philippines, Lanka, Nepal. Respondents were asked provide details about pathway fracture, including pre-hospital transport, time admission, surgery,...
Abstract Summary This pilot audit explored how bone health is assessed patients with diabetes in diverse centres across Asia. Only 343 of 1092 (31%) audited had a assessment, 27% whom were diagnosed osteoporosis. Quality improvement strategies are needed to address gaps patient care this area. Purpose The Asia Pacific Consortium on Osteoporosis (APCO) Framework outlines clinical standards for assessing and managing A evaluated adherence standard 4, which states that should be conditions...
The purpose of this study was to investigate the mortality rate and other associated risk factors a year after diagnosis osteoporotic hip fracture. A prospective cohort carried out in 120 patients who were at least 50 years age presented with fracture caused by simple fall admitted Police General Hospital 2013. Background data, collected evaluated. There 88 females (73.33%) 32 males (26.67%). average 79.4 years. Eleven deceased end study. about 3.3 times higher when compared general...
The purpose of the study is to assess effectiveness fracture liaison service (FLS) after 5-year implementation close secondary care gap, ensuring that patients receive osteoporosis assessment, intervention, and treatment, therefore, reducing risk at Police General Hospital (PGH).A prospective cohort was conducted. We studied male female, ≥ 50 years old who presented with a fragility hip participated in PGH's FLS from April 1, 2014-March 31, 2019 (5 implementation). sample size 353 patients,...
The aim of this study was to report the health-related quality life (HRQoL) over first year after osteoporotic hip fracture and identify factors associated with HRQoL in Police General Hospital Thailand.A prospective cohort conducted. 139 subjects who had were recruited, which they will be assessed during preinjury recall at 3, 6, 12 months fracture. measured as Thailand health state utility values (THSUVs), derived from EuroQol-5-Dimension-3-Level. Factors change QoL analyzed.One hundred...
To evaluate the role of trabecular bone score (TBS), in addition to mineral density (BMD), and aid decision making initiate anti-osteoporotic treatment postmenopausal women with osteopenia.TBS was assessed a cohort Thai BMD femoral neck (FN), total hip (TH), lumbar spine (LS) performed at Police General Hospital, Bangkok, Thailand from July 2019 October 2020. We retrospectively reviewed hospital database for underlying diseases, medication, fractures, including relevant imaging vertebral...
The objective of this study is to assess outcomes and patient's mortality Police General Hospital's fracture liaison service (PGH's FLS) during Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak comparing the former period.Retrospective cohort was performed in patients aged 50 or older who were admitted with fragility hip Hospital, Bangkok, between January 1, 2018 December 31, (before pandemic) 2020 2021 (pandemic) using electronic database. other one-year follow up.A total 139 fractures recorded...
Background: Vitamin D deficiency directly impacts bone biology, eventually resulting in elevated risk of fragility fracture. Despite its global abundance, data concerning prevalence and factors among Thai patients with osteoporotic hip fractures remains lacking.
 Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the average level serum vitamin D, hypovitaminosis factor elderly fractures.
 Methods: A cross-sectional was conducted aged 60 years or older a single center from April 2016-April...
To compare the efficacy of cholecalciferol and ergocalciferol in raising 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) level Thai female healthcare workers.A randomized control trial was conducted healthy workers. Randomization allocated participants into vitamin D2 group (N = 43), receiving 20,000 IU weekly D3 40), 1000 daily for 12 months. Venous blood sample collected at baseline, 6 months serum 25(OH)D, parathyroid hormone calcium. Compliance also assessed.The mean age 50.6 ± 9.9 50.9 8.4 years groups...

Purpose: The Fracture Risk Assessment Tool (FRAX®) has been recommended and incorporated into osteoporotic guidelines worldwide to assess fracture risk promptly diagnose osteoporosis when bone mineral density is unavailable. However, a country-specific intervention threshold for Thai patients remains unknown. Therefore, we aimed identify an appropriate cut-off point the 10-year probability of hip (HF), specifically in population. Methods: This retrospective cohort study included members...
Purpose: The coronavirus pandemic has posed challenges for medical education, including the loss of lecture hours. Resident physicians were offered video podcasts to compensate hours but without proven efficacy. This study aimed investigate effectiveness related osteoporotic and metabolic bone diseases during residency training. Methods: Orthopedic residents voluntarily allocated podcast or traditional group. Twenty-two covering major topics in osteoporosis developed by experts Each was...
To compare the trabecular bone score (TBS) between Thai postmenopausal women with and without major osteoporotic fracture, to determine whether TBS is associated fracture risk.All sent for dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) at Police General Hospital were retrospectively recruited. The hospital's online database radiographs reviewed collect information on underlying disease, medication, previous fractures, mineral density, score. Patients anti-osteoporotic medication use, skeletal...
