OSTEOPOROSIS
To evaluate the effect of the patients’ education, their knowledge of osteoporosis was assessed by ten open-ended questions at baseline and post-intervention. The questions tested a basic knowledge of osteoporosis, medication, exercise and fall prevention, and were produced and evaluated by experienced university teachers. The total score was between 0 (worst knowledge) and 22 (best knowledge).
