Abstract:
The guidelines on physiotherapy and exercise for osteoporosis from 2008 have recently been extensively revised on the basis of new scientific findings and possible applications. The S3 guidelines have not yet been approved by consensus and the planned completion date (Association of the Scientific Medical Societies in Germany, AWMF online, registry number 183-002) is autumn 2024. Based on the publication in Issue 3 Osteology (August 2023), key points of the guidelines on physical training and fracture prophylaxis are summarized in abridged form. These are practice-oriented, evidence-based recommendations for optimal training for fracture prevention.

Fractures: Bone Repair
Minor fractures with no bone displacement are treated by immobilizing the fractured bone using a cast or splint. However, in the case of fractures with displaced bones, the broken bones are repositioned before immobilization to ensure successful healing without deformation and loss of function. The realignment of fractured bone ends is performed through a process called reduction. If the...

Exercise and Cardiovascular Response
Light to moderate physical activity initiates a series of interconnected responses in the body. The heart rate modestly increases in anticipation of the workout, followed by widespread vasodilation as oxygen consumption by skeletal muscles increases. This results in decreased peripheral resistance, increased capillary blood flow, and accelerated...
Bone Disorders
Bone deposition is also affected by the levels of sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone that promote osteoblast activity and bone matrix synthesis. When the level of these hormones decreases due to aging, it causes a reduction in bone deposition. As a result, bone resorption by osteoclasts...
