Study Notes
Overview of Osteoporosis, Bone Cells, and BMD:
- Osteoporosis is a systemic skeletal disorder characterized by low bone mass and increased bone fragility.
- Bone cells include osteoblasts and osteoclasts, which respond to different hormones.
- BMD is measured via DXA scan and a T-score of less than -2.5 indicates osteoporosis.
Screening and Diagnosis of Osteoporosis:
- Basic bone health measures include exercise, calcium and vitamin D intake, and fall prevention.
- Fragility fractures, risk factors, and secondary osteoporosis are indications for screening.
- Recommended biochemical tests include serum calcium, vitamin D, and CBC.
- Risk stratification is based on the 10-year fracture risk, calculated using the CAROC tool or FRAX questionnaire.
Treatment of Osteoporosis:
- Non-pharmacological therapies include exercise, lifestyle changes, and calcium and vitamin D supplementation.
- Pharmacological therapies include bisphosphonates, denosumab, and other agents.
- Contraindications for bisphosphonates include denosumab therapy, pregnancy, and CKD.
