When former President Ronald Reagan fell and broke his hip at the age of 89 , he joined a group of more than 350,000 elderly Americans who fracture their hips each year.

These injuries are not to be taken lightly. According to the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons, only 25% of those who suffer hip fractures ever fully recover; as many as 20% will die within 12 months. Even when patients do recover, nearly half will need a cane or a walker to get around.
