/Objectives   Identification of groups of patients following similar trajectories of time-varying patient characteristics are often of considerable clinical value. This study provides an example of how the identification of trajectory groups of patients can be useful.Methods   Using clinical and administrative data of a prospective cohort study aiming to improve the secondary prevention of osteoporosis-related fractures with a Fracture Liaison Service (FLS), trajectory groups for visit compliance over time (2-year follow-up) were predicted using group-based trajectory modeling. Predictors of trajectory groups were identified using multinomial logistic regressions.Results   Among 532 participants (86% women, mean age 63 years), three trajectories were identified and interpreted as high followers, intermediate followers, and low followers. The predicted probability for group-membership was: 48.4% high followers, 28.1% intermediate followers, 23.5% low followers. A lower femoral bone mineral density and polypharmacy were predictors of being in the high followers compared to the low followers group; predictors for being in the intermediate followers group were polypharmacy and referral to a bone specialist at baseline.Conclusions   Results provided information on visit compliance patterns and predictors for the patients undergoing the intervention. This information has important implications when implementing such health services and determining their effectiveness.
