N2  - During the year 1994, 318 women suffered from hip fractures in the Republic of Panama. Of these, 310 fractures occurred in post-menopausal women (97.5%). The rate of hip fractures in post-menopausal women is 191.76 by 100,000 women of fifty or more years of age. Both public health and other civic entities should organize a nationwide campaign to prevent osteoporosis and fractures in general.<p /> <p>Language: es</p>
