We invite you to participate in our June 24th Capture the Fracture® webinar "Advanced age, dementia, frailty: is it ever too late to treat patients in an FLS?"

Date: June 24, 2026 - 5 to 6 PM CEST
Speaker: Dr Cathleen Colon-Emeric
Moderator: Dr Andrea Singer

TOPIC

Patients living with advanced age, frailty, and cognitive impairment, including dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, are at particularly high risk of falls, fragility fractures, and their associated complications. Despite this increased vulnerability, these patients are often underdiagnosed and undertreated within fracture prevention pathways. Falls and fractures in frail older adults are associated with significant morbidity, mortality, loss of independence, and economic burden, raising important questions about how and when patients should be managed within a Fracture Liaison Service (FLS). This webinar will explore whether it is ever “too late” to treat, and how FLS models can adapt to meet the complex needs of this growing patient population.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

• Estimate fracture risk and remaining life expectancy in patients with advanced age
• Define lag time to benefit for common osteoporosis treatments
• Use the “Geriatric 4Ms” to guide management of patients with osteoporosis and advanced age or frailty
