      abstract = {The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons recommends  that elderly patients who sustain a hip fracture should be  evaluated and treated for osteoporosis. Despite research  supporting the use of bisphosphonates for osteoporosis  treatment and secondary fracture prevention in elderly  patients, osteoporosis continues to be under-diagnosed and  inadequately treated. Our quality improvement initiative  aims to increase OHSU?s rate of successfully implementing  bisphosphonate therapy by developing and implementing an  inpatient protocol facilitating appropriate osteoporosis  diagnosis and administration of a one-time intravenous  bisphosphonate infusion for elderly patients admitted for  hip fracture surgery.},
