What is Geriatric Fracture Management?

Geriatric fracture management focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of fractures in elderly patients, taking into account age-related factors such as osteoporosis, reduced bone density, and overall health conditions.

Fractures in older adults are often more complex and require specialized care due to slower healing, higher risk of complications, and associated medical conditions.

Dr. Hemendra Agrawal provides comprehensive geriatric fracture care with a focus on early mobilization, pain control, and restoring independence.

Treatment may include both non-surgical methods such as casting and surgical interventions like internal fixation or joint replacement, depending on the fracture type and patient condition.
