Summary

A number of studies for clinical pathway (CP) after hip fracture have been suggested to improve post-fracture outcome. However, CP is not carried out properly in most countries due to inadequate system and awareness, and lack of interdisciplinary approach among orthopaedists, geriatricians and rehabilitation specialists. Thus, we developed Fragility fracture integrated rehabilitation management (FIRM), a new standardized guideline and the multidisciplinary fragility fracture care based on the clinical rehabilitation pathway and conducted a prospective study to evaluate the effects of FIRM compared to conventional rehabilitation.
