dc.description.abstract | Therapeutic ultrasound is a frequently used modality in the practice of physical therapy. However, its effects on osteoporosis (OP) are not clear. We investigate the effect of therapeutic ultrasound on bone mineral density (BMD). We examined retrospectively 1,610 postmenopausal patients' data and we created two groups. The treatment group consisted of 36 patients who have been applied only the ultrasound treatment and the control group consisted of 38 patients who have never received any kind of physical treatment. Both of two groups have never received OP treatment. The mean values of BMD showed no significant difference between the treatment and control groups. Patients' BMD values, within the treatment group, were compared according to the treatment application region. There was no significant difference among groups. We determined that the ultrasound application has no effect on BMD. However, we consider that therapeutic ultrasound will help to decrease the skeletal system related complaints of the patients, improve their exercise capacity, and decrease the risk of osteoporosis. | en_US |
