prescribing practices, and guideline adherence for osteoporosis management, followed by an assessment of the content validity index and reliability test. This is the Clinicians’ Osteoporosis Questionnaire (COQ), a 40-item questionnaire, which was generated in Malaysia.</p> <p>The items for the COQ were generated based on:</p> <p>i. Literature review:</p> <p>● Malaysian Primary Care Study: Identified knowledge, attitudes, practices, and barriers in osteoporosis management among primary care doctors.</p> <p>● Singapore Primary Care Study: Evaluated osteoporosis guideline utilization and barriers to care among primary care physicians.</p> <p>● Osteoporosis Medication Study: Assessed factors contributing to the initiation of osteoporosis medications post-hip fracture, as well as compliance and persistence with these medications.</p> <p>ii. Clinical Practice Guidelines:</p> <p>● The latest Malaysia CPG for Osteoporosis 2022 provided a framework for identifying essential practices and barriers relevant to osteoporosis management.</p> <p>iii. Focus group discussion:</p> <p>● Conducted with osteoporosis expert panel to identify additional barriers and practices specific to tertiary care settings.</p> <p>The authors encourage the use of the questionnaire by clinicians stating that: ‘<em>Applying the COQ in clinical settings can reveal critical gaps and challenges faced by healthcare providers, enabling the development of targeted interventions. For instance, identifying barriers such as inadequate knowledge of osteoporosis guidelines and medications, difficulty in interpreting DXA scan results, and patient-related factors like non-adherence to medication can help design educational programs tailored to clinicians’ needs</em>.’</p> <p><strong>Click <a
