About this study

Official title: The Effect of Progressive Loading Protocol on Bone Mineral Density and Quality of Life in Osteoporotic Patients.

The aims of this study are to examine the effects of Progressive Loading Exercises Protocol on Bone Mineral Density in osteoporotic patient's well-being and quality of life before a fracture occurs in order to create remedies. In addition, the available data from health research and clinical studies on osteoporosis will be evaluated for their impact on patient well-being and quality of life, providing an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of evidence-based treatments.

Read the detailed description

Progressive Loading Protocol (PLP): The subjects in the Progressive Loading Group will undergo 4-7 days of moderate to high impact loading activities per week for the duration of 6 weeks. The PLP is adapted and modified based on Exercise and Sports Science Australia (ESSA) position statement on exercise prescription for the prevention and management of Osteoporosis. The participants in the progressive loading group will perform vertical and multidirectional jumping, bounding, hopping, skipping rope, drop jumps and bench stepping. The weight bearing intensity will be progressed by increasing heights for activities such as bounding and drop jumping, adding weighted vests and changing directions. To prevent the risk of injury, the participants would be instructed to avoid the loaded spine flexion or twisting movements of the spine. Frail individuals should be supervised and exercised within reach of a railing or other stable support.

Intensity: Moderate-to-high weight bearing impact loads (>2 times body weight) that are progressive, novel, and multidirectional, within the limits of pain, increasing as tolerated.

Frequency: 4-7 days per week

Sets/Repetitions: Aim to work up to 50 repetitions over time (5 sets of 10 repetitions with 1-2 min rest between sets)

The subjects in the Control Group will undergo twelve weeks of low impact Aerobics Training along with a health awareness program..

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Measuring the result of change by Dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DXA) During the Intervention

    to measure bone mineral density (BMD) at the spine and hip region. and hip regio

    Measured: At the start of the intervention, then the measurement is done again after six weeks..

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Randomization Program and Progressive Loading Protocol (PLP): in people with Osteoporosis, run by Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University at 1 site in Saudi Arabia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Sep 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Saudi Arabia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Measuring the result of change by Dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DXA) During the Intervention (time frame: At the start of the intervention, then the measurement is done again after six weeks..). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Sep 2023.
