摘要
Background and objective: The aim of this study is to determine whether an educational intervention in perimenopausal women in rural environments achieves significant changes in risk behaviors related to osteoporosis. Material and methods: Randomized clinical trials of parallel groups: 216 women (45-54 years old) of a rural Primary Healthcare service. Pre- and post- intervention were covered: body mass index (BMI), densitometry and blood test (calcium [Ca], parathormone [PTH]). Intervention group (n1 = 110): 2 interactive workshops on the prevention of osteoporosis. Control group (n2 = 106): information by post. Results: After the educational intervention, the intervention group maintained its BMI, increased its bone mineral density (BMD) (P < .001) and decreased the Ca (P <= .048) and PTH (P < .001) levels. The control group increased its BMI (P < .001) and its BMD (P <= .048), maintained its Ca levels and decreased the PTH values (P=.01). Conclusions: The improvement in the objective parameters related to osteoporosis indicates the importance of health education as a preventive measure in this group of women. It would be interesting to analyze the repercussions of this improvement on a long-term basis in terms of reducing the incidence of osteoporosis and fractures. (C) 2012 Elsevier Espana, S.L.
