Effect of Percutaneous Vertebroplasty on Senile Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures and Quality of Life
Objective:To analyze the effect of percutaneous vertebroplasty on senile osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture and its influence on patients'quality of life.Methods:A total of 100 senile patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures were selected from June 2021 to February 2023.Patients were divided into two groups on average,and conservative treatment(control group,n=45)and conservative treatment+percutaneous vertebroplasty(observation group,n=55)were respectively conducted.The injured vertebral function score,lumbar pain score,vertebral structure index,bone density and bone metabolism index,and quality of life score were compared between the two groups before treatment and 3 months after treatment.Results:After treatment,the functional scores and pain scores of injured vertebrae in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group,the height of anterior vertebral edge and midline of vertebral body were higher than those in control group,and the Cobb Angle was smaller than that in control group(t=9.499,12.204,6.939,7.358,14.776;P<0.05).After treatment,bone mineral density,BGP and BALP in observation group were higher than those in control group(t=9.020,6.574,6.154;P<0.05).After treatment,the scores of physical pain,health status,physiological function and physiological function in observation group were higher than those in control group(t=7.588,5.952,5.873,6.877;P<0.05).Conclusion:Percutaneous vertebroplasty is effective in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture in elderly patients,which can effectively improve the injured vertebral function,vertebral structure index,bone mineral density and bone metabolism index;relieve the pain of patients;and improve the quality of life of patients.
