Improved Services For Osteoporosis Sufferers

EDM number 280 in 2002-03, proposed by John Austin on 04/12/2002.

That this House is concerned that one in three women and one in 12 men over the age of 50 years are affected by the painful and disabling fragile bone disease, osteoporosis; is alarmed to learn that the cost of repairing the United Kingdom's 310,000 osteoporotic fractures each year is ú1.7 billion while fewer than one in 10 patients with osteoporosis receive any treatment to prevent further fractures; congratulates the National Ostoporosis Society on its work as the only national charity dedicated to improving the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of the disease; welcomes the recent referral of osteoporosis to the National Institute for Clinical Excellence; and urges the Government to invest now in the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of this disease to ensure that all patients attending fall or fracture clinics or in high risk groups for breaking bones are assessed for osteoporosis and put on appropriate treatment to prevent further fracture or first fractures.

This motion has been signed by a total of 145 MPs.
