- Ultrasound of _____ to measure bone density
- Alkaline _____
- Serum bone _____ _____
- Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)
- Ultrasound of heel to measure bone density

- Serum bone Gla protein
Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)
- Measures bone density in _____ _____ or _____
- Considered _____ accurate
- Measures bone density in lumbar spine of hip
- Considered highly accurate
Is the Ultrasound of heel to measure bone density as accurate as DEXA
no
One causative factor of osteoporosis is lack of weight-bearing activity. Weight bearing helps to move _____ back into the bone, thereby strengthening them. A standard intervention for those attempting to prevent or reverse osteoporosis is beginning an exercise plan that includes weight-bearing activities.
calcium
Strict bed rest may well make the osteoporosis worse because there is no weight-bearing activity.. Assisted range of motion exercises are not weight-bearing and (do, do not) help delay or reverse osteoporosis.
do not
