![]() ![]() ![]() T-score levels as an indicator of the BMD were measured with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Results: 49 patients (40 females, 9 males mean age 62 years) with fractures of the metaphyseal distal radius (n=25) or the proximal humerus (n=24) were included in the study. ![]() 24 of them were diagnosed of having low BMD, whereas 25 had a normal BMD. During follow-up time serum levels of bone turnover markers, as well as vitamin D3 and iPTH, showed no significant changes however, ESWT approaches the decreased serum levels of patients with low BMD to the level of healthy organisms.Ĭonclusions: ESWT as treatment option of fractures in patients with low BMD can lead to an equilibration of levels of bone turnover markers to the levels of patients with normal BMD.ĭie Osteoporose und die damit verbundenen Folgen nehmen eine immer bedeutendere Rolle ein. Durch reduzierte Knochendichte bedingte Frakturen heilen langsamer und qualitativ minderwertiger. Aus der Pseudarthrosenbehandlung ist bekannt, dass die Anwendung der Extrakorporalen Stoßwellentherapie EWST einen positiven Effekt auf die Knochenbruchheilung hat.ĭer Einfluss der Stimulation durch ESWT auf die Frakturheilung bei normaler und erniedrigter Knochendichte wird in dieser Studie untersucht. ![]()
