Assessing & Treating Bone Loss #6
Assessing & Treating Bone Loss:
Seven Tips For Improving Outcomes Here are a few evaluation and management tips that Dr. Vargo & her colleagues have gathered over their years of practice focused on osteoporosis
Look at the Bigger Picture: Bone loss occurs in a broader metabolic context. When evaluating a patient, consider nutritional status (especially calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D levels), liver and kidney function, as well as thyroid and parathyroid hormone levels. Always look for celiac disease, as it tends to predispose people to bone loss. In men, check testosterone levels. Keep in mind that anyone with a chronic inflammatory condition, rheumatoid disease, or systemic metabolic disorder (including diabetes) will be at increased osteoporosis risk.
