This self-directed learning module reviews and summarizes recent literature on osteoporosis. It is part of the chapter on rehabilitation of orthopedic and rheumatologic disorders in the Self-Directed Physiatric Education Program for practitioners and trainees in physical medicine and rehabilitation. The areas covered include pathophysiology of primary and secondary osteoporosis, effects of various pharmacologic treatments on bone metabolism, and the utility of available diagnostic tests. Management strategies for perimenopausal women as compared with postmenopausal women with established osteoporosis are discussed. This is followed by an evaluation and management plan for the older man with acute osteoporotic fracture.
