The risk of subsequent fracture was highest immediately after the initial fracture, but was not higher than the risk for individuals without a fracture 10 years after the initial fracture (41% of the subsequent fractures occurred within 2 years)

[4••] to all clinical vertebral and nonvertebral fractures, in women from menopause onward, and for both low- and high-energy trauma fractures. The initial fracture type was not a predictor for subsequent fractures. The subsequent fracture risk remained higher, compared with initial fracture risk, for 15 years after the initial fracture (23% of the subsequent fractures occurred within 1 year)

The cumulative incidence showed that 9% of the subsequent hip fractures were suffered within 1 year and 20% within 5 years. The risk for a subsequent fracture remained significantly higher than the risk for individuals without a fracture for 15 years after the initial fracture
