| description | Objective: The study aims to identify the risk of obtaining a fracture among post-menopausal
women with osteopenia and osteoporosis.
Method: This work was a cross-sectional study involving a purposive sample of 87 post-menopausal
women who attended the orthopedic and menopause clinics of Hospital Tengku Ampuan
Afzan, Kuantan. The data were entered into the WHO fracture risk assessment tool (FRAX®) to
predict major fracture and risk for hip fracture in 10 years’ time.
Results: The mean age of the respondents was 61.6 years (SD = 7.9). Among the respondents, 50.6%
had osteopenia and nearly half (48.3%) had osteoporosis. The mean number of menopausal years of
the respondents was 11.9 (SD = 8.5), ranging between 1 and 44 years. The FRAX findings indicated
9.7% major osteoporotic fracture probability and 3.5% hip fracture probability, which were denoted
as high risk. A Pearson correlation coefficient was computed to assess the relationship between
menopausal years and the FRAX major osteoporotic fracture probability. A significant positive correlation
was found between the two, but the correlation was weak (r = 0.581, n = 87, p < 0.001).
Conclusions: The present findings indicate that menopausal years have a positive correlation
with the risk of obtaining a fracture. |
