Filter by:At Departmental Hospital Centre, a primary and secondary screening program for osteoporosis was set up in 2014 in the medical services (excluding oncology), gynaecology, outpatient surgery and orthopaedics. Patients who consulted outpatients in the emergency room were not taken into account due to the 24-hour opening hours. The objective of this program was to identify all patients at risk of osteoporosis; i. e. not only patients with a recent or previous fracture history, but also patients with osteoporosis risk factors without a history of fracture to date. This is in order to propose a prevention strategy to referring physicians and thus reduce the risk of fractures. The handover of the Timed Up and Go designed and physically carried out was added in July 2017 to the management of patients as part of this screening. During this screening, patients are asked to perform 2 realized Timed Up and Go (rTUG), followed by 2 imagined Timed Up and Go (iTUG). The interest in preventing falls in osteoporotic patients leads investigators to propose this evaluation as part of this "osteoporosis" screening. The investigators will offer patients benefiting from osteoporosis screening as part of the process already in place at Departmental Hospital Centre to participate in the FallMi study. If agreement is reached, the patient's treating physician will be contacted to collect data on the occurrence of falls in these patients. After a request by mail, an email will be sent to the attending physicians of each patient at 6 months, then one year after the completion of the TUG. This email will ask physicians about the presence of a fall that has occurred since the TUGs were performed, as well as the severity of this possible fall. Investigators objective is to evaluate rTUG and iTUG as predictive factors of a fall with moderate to fatal consequences. Investigators hypothesize that a lower isochrony between rTUG and iTUG is predictive of a risk of falling.
