Guías de práctica clínica en la osteoporosis postmenopáusica, glucocorticoidea y del varón (actualización 2022)

Abstract

This update incorporates the most relevant information that has emerged during the seven years since the publication of the previous version, with a particular focus on diagnostic procedures and therapeutic options. Among the diagnostic procedures, we highlight the use of the Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) and densitometry for identifying the risk of vertebral fractures. Novel therapeutic modalities include the use of anabolic drugs with comparative studies focused on their efficacy for the treatment of severe osteoporosis. Guidelines for actions to be taken after discontinuation of antiresorptive agents, sequential therapy and current recommended treatment schemes are included.
