The results of an osteoporosis survey held around 153 traumatologists-orthopaedics are analyzed in this article. The survey aim: the assessment of an awareness level and opinion record among traumatologists-orthopaedics about diagnostics and treatment of osteoporosis and their participation in solving these problems. An executed survey revealed low level of the osteoporosis registration as an independent nosologic unit with individual ICS code. The registration was held barely by 23% of interviewed doctors. Despite the fact that there is a sufficient provision of X-ray densitometers (91% respondents showed) and osteoporosis prophylaxis centers in the regions (75% respondents showed) only 34% patients with diagnosis «osteoporosis» are guided to the X-ray densitometry. According to doctors’ opinions the X-ray radiography appears to be the leading research for osteoporosis diagnostics. The FRAX method is used in a real clinical practice rarely. Due to the doctors’ opinions the following results confirm the necessity of creation of fracture liaison service in our country that would deal with secondary prevention of osteoporotic fractures. This service should mobilize traumatologists-orthopaedics in order to increase the knowledge level of osteoporosis diagnostics and treatment.
