Consensus Statements On Osteoporosis Diagnosis, Prevention, and Management in The Philippines
ORIGINAL ARTICLE
Abstract
Objective: The consensus statements were developed to assist healthcare practitioners in providing optimal
care to postmenopausal individuals at risk for osteoporosis and fragility fractures in the local setting.
Methodology: The Technical Review Committee formed by the Osteoporosis Society of the Philippines Founda-
tion Inc. in cooperation with the Philippine Orthopedic Association drafted, retrieved available published evi-
dence, and appraised important issues on osteoporosis and fragility fractures. The Appraisal of Guidelines
Research and Evaluation instrument was used to appraise published guidelines while a systematic way of validat-
ing the quality of evidence and the level of recommendation was done using the GRADE system. A multidisci-
plinary panel of experts and stakeholders in an en banc meeting conferred and approved the recommendations.
Results and conclusion: There were five key issues on preventive, seven on diagnostic, nine on therapeutic
aspects of osteoporosis with four other surgical concerns on fragility fractures. All were approved by a panel
of stakeholders through a majority vote. These statements will best inform the clinicians and the specialists
including orthopedic surgeons and general care practitioners on issues of postmenopausal Filipino women at
risk for osteoporosis and fragility fractures.

RESULTS
Of the 30 international and one local guidelines retrieved, 16 guidelines were excluded. Reasons for exclusion
included: two guidelines were in men, one in pediatric patients, 13 guidelines fell short of the agreed score set in
either ‘rigor of development’ or ‘clarity of presentation’. The final list appraised included 15 guidelines.4–18 There
were three major divisions on which this guideline was developed: prevention, diagnosis, and treatment (medical
and surgical).
Preventive aspects
Q1. What is the role of calcium and vitamin D in bone health among PMW? How much calcium and vitamin
D supplement should a PMW woman receive? Can calcium and vitamin D supplementation reduce the risk
for fractures?
It is highly recommended that PMW should receive calcium in combination with vitamin D for optimal bone
health. (refer to Table 1 for 2002 Philippine Food and Nutrition Research Institute (FNRI) recommendation19 of
average daily requirement for calcium and vitamin D based on age group and Tables 2 and 3 for food sources
and food tips).
Q4. Are there any forms of exercise that can reduce the risk of fractures?
Q5. Are there natural food supplements that could prevent bone loss?
Screening tools
Q6. What is/are the screening tool/s that clinicians can use to identify risk of individuals for osteoporosis?
It is not cost-effective to do general population screening, case finding strategies (with or without BMD) in the
clinics should focus on the clinical and non-clinical risk factors that are known to put a patient at risk for osteo-
porosis and fragility fractures (refer to Tables 4–6). Considerations for secondary causes of osteoporosis that
warrant optional blood work-up should be pursued (refer to WHO list of secondary causes).
Diagnostic aspects
Q8. Should clinicians rely on radiograph in the diagnosis of osteoporosis?
Q11. Can we use peripheral densitometry technologies and bone turnover markers in diagnosing osteoporo-
sis?
Q12. What are the recommended sites for bone density measurement?
Treatment options
Q13. When do we start treatment?
Q15. What are the treatment options available for low to intermediate risk PMW?
Q16. Are there non-pharmacologic preventive measures that can be recommended to avoid falls or fragility
fractures?
Q17. Can a special nutrition or diet improve functional outcome of high risk patients?
Q18. Can a special nutrition or diet decrease future fracture risk in high-risk patients? (no data).
Q19. What form of exercise should be recommended among the high risk individuals to increase their bone
mass and decrease risk for future fracture?
Q20. What are the recommended treatment options to increase bone mass and decrease future fracture risk
among high risk group?
Q21. Is there a role for combination therapy or sequential therapy among high risk group?
The key issues for the succeeding part of the guidelines (Q22–25) were critically appraised by experts from the
Philippine Orthopedic Association (POA).
Q22. What specific surgical options will yield a better result in femoral neck fractures?
Q23. What specific surgical options will provide a better result in extracapsular hip fractures – fixation or
arthroplasty?
Q24. What specific implant would provide a better result in extracapsular hip fractures – intramedullary or ex-
tramedullary devices?
Q25. What other benefits of bisphosphonates are considered in patients with fragility fractures?
