简要总结
Patients with T score of bone mineral densitometry less than or equal to -2.5 will be included in the study. Initial evaluation consists of obtaining demographic data, performing international physical activity questionnaire (short form) Additionally; Berg balance test, timed sit and walk test, single leg stance test, tandem walk test, tandem stance test will be performed. Baseline static and dynamic balance scores of patients will be determined by the Corebalance Premiere-19 balance device. After acclimation the device and tests, 3 measurements will be made and the most successful score will be taken. The lowest value will be showing best performance. After the first evaluation, patients will be randomized using windows excel randomization option to two groups by another observer. Patients will be blinded about which exercise group they will be separated to. Both groups will be thought exercise series which will be based on recommendations which is published on October 2016 by UK national osteoporosis foundation. Patients would be encouraged to perform the exercises on recommended basis and handouts will be given to patients in both groups. The yoga group will also be taught "tree pose".
Patients will be encouraged to note their exercises regularly on daily basis. Patients will be reevaluated after first and third months and balance tests will be re-performed to determine the effect of given exercises.
Exclusion criteria
- Neurological or vestibule dysfunctions which may affect balance
- Severe mental disturbances effecting communication
- Locomotor dysfunction which prevents patient to perform balance tests
- Active musculoskeletal pathology which disrupt performing exercises.
详细描述
Patients with osteoporosis who applied to PMR outpatient clinic of Istanbul Medeniyet University Goztepe Training and Research Hospital will be included in the study. Informed consent detailing the purpose and content of the study will be obtained from patients. Initial evaluation of patients will be performed by the same doctor. Initial evaluation consists of obtaining demographic data and performing international physical activity questionnaire (short form) to evaluate physical activity frequencies of patients. Additionally; Berg balance test, timed sit and walk test, single leg stance test, tandem walk test, tandem stance test will be performed. Baseline static and dynamic balance scores of patients will be determined by the Corebalance Premiere-19 balance device. After acclimation the device and tests, 3 measurements will be made and the most successful score will be taken. The lowest value will be showing best performance. After the first evaluation, patients will be randomized using windows excel randomization option to two groups by another observer. Patients will be blinded about which exercise group they will be separated to. To learn the exercises the patient will be referred to physiatrist Ozge Solakoglu who completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training programme certificated by Yoga Alliance. Both groups will be thought exercise series which will be based on recommendations which is published on October 2016 by UK national osteoporosis foundation. Patients would be encouraged to perform the exercises on recommended basis and handouts will be given to patients in both groups. The yoga group will also be taught "tree pose".
Patients will be encouraged to note their exercises regularly on daily basis. Patients will be reevaluated after first and third months and balance tests will be re-performed to determine the effect of given exercises.

结局指标
主要结局
Static balance score
时间窗: 5 min.
The Korebalance Premiere-19 device and software will be used to make balance assessment. Static test requires standing steady and balancing on the platform, keeping the cross-hairs of cursor in the center of the test pattern. The score indicates the deviation of user's center of gravity from the center of the pattern. After familirization of the patient to the test, the lowest score of three measurements will be noted. The lowest score gives the most successfull scores of test.
次要结局
- Single leg stance test score(1 min)
- Dynamic balance score(5 min.)
- Timed sit and walk test score(1 min.)
- Berg balance test score(10 min.)
- Tandem stance test score(1 min)
- Tandem walk test score(1 min)
