Association between osteoporotic fractures and quality of life based on the Korean Community Health Survey of 2010

Abstract: [Purpose] To assess the relationship between fractures and quality of life (QOL) of osteoporosis patients as well as the treatment methods and locations of fractures following osteoporosis diagnosis. [Subjects and Methods] Participants were selected from a cohort consisting of 229,229 subjects who participated in the Korean Community Health Survey. Those who were not diagnosed with osteoporosis by a doctor were excluded from the study (326) and the final analysis included 17,387 previously diagnosed participan… Show more

“…In Korea, although researches on HQROL associated with various other diseases are available,[18192021] those related to osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures are few. [1819] Therefore, we designed to explore HRQOL among Korean patients with osteoporosis and to measure the impact of fractures and comorbidity on their QOL using the Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (KNHANES) data with a nationwide representativeness.…”

“…Reduced HRQoL in patients with osteoporosis is caused primarily by fractures, particularly of the spine or hip, which cause pain and impair physical, social, and mental function [35][36][37]. Therefore, many HRQoL instruments that measure the effects of osteoporosis focus on vertebral, hip, and other nontraumatic fractures on patient function and psychosocial well-being [38,39], and find poor HRQoL after fractures [22]. However, although the primary O + symptom is fracture, other problems, (e.g., the RIP, education, chronic pain, and cigarette smoking) reduce physical capacity and function, and depression worsens the HRQoL of O + patients [20,40].…”

“…Moreover, depressed patients have higher predictive risk of hip fracture and high depressive symptomatology remained predictive of higher risk of hip fracture than those with low depressive symptomatology [18]. Furthermore, depression appears to increase comorbid medical conditions, disabilities, and healthcare resource use, and to reduce HRQoL [19].Osteoporosis + (O + ) patients with depression and a low HRQoL have a high risk of poor long-term surgical outcomes [20][21][22]. Most studies of the medical resources used focus on osteoporotic fractures; femoral fractures use the most resources because patients require surgery and hospitalization.…”
