520    This open access book aims to provide a comprehensive but 
       practical overview of the knowledge required for the 
       assessment and management of the older adult with or at 
       risk of fragility fracture. It considers this from the 
       perspectives of all of the settings in which this group of
       patients receive nursing care. Globally, a fragility 
       fracture is estimated to occur every 3 seconds. This 
       amounts to 25 000 fractures per day or 9 million per year.
       The financial costs are reported to be: 32 billion EUR per
       year in Europe and 20 billon USD in the United States. As 
       the population of China ages, the cost of hip fracture 
       care there is likely to reach 1.25 billion USD by 2020 and
       265 billion by 2050 (International Osteoporosis Foundation
       2016). Consequently, the need for nursing for patients 
       with fragility fracture across the world is immense. 
       Fragility fracture is one of the foremost challenges for 
       health care providers, and the impact of each one of those
       expected 9 million hip fractures is significant pain, 
       disability, reduced quality of life, loss of independence 
       and decreased life expectancy. There is a need for 
       coordinated, multi-disciplinary models of care for 
       secondary fracture prevention based on the increasing 
       evidence that such models make a difference. There is also
       a need to promote and facilitate high quality, evidence-
       based effective care to those who suffer a fragility 
       fracture with a focus on the best outcomes for recovery, 
       rehabilitation and secondary prevention of further 
       fracture. The care community has to understand better the 
       experience of fragility fracture from the perspective of 
       the patient so that direct improvements in care can be 
       based on the perspectives of the users. This book supports
       these needs by providing a comprehensive approach to 
       nursing practice in fragility fracture care.
