ABSTRACT

Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and loss of bone tissue that leads to weak and fragile bones. Purpose: The aim of this prospective study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a rehabilitation program with trunk Isokinetic exercises in flexion-extension and rotations for three months in female patients with primary osteoporosis of the hip and lumbar spine to increase the bone mineral density (BMD). Methods: Twelve patients were include in the study and they were divided in 2 groups. Group A 57 a 65 years (59.7) received the classic training program for this patients and the Group B 57 a 64 years (60.5) received the classic training program and trunk Isokinetic exercise in flexion-extension and rotations. Results: The statistics analyses (t Student) between DMOI and DMOF was p > 0.05. Conclusions: We consider necessary to increase the sample and the range of motion in flexion to 70° and also make a follow up to 6 months and 1 year to observe these changes.
