Resumen
[ES] Introducción. La osteoporosis postmenopáusica conlleva un alto riesgo de fracturas por fragilidad,
muchas de las cuales son resultado de caídas. El objetivo es analizar la magnitud y extensión del
trastorno del equilibrio en mujeres con osteoporosis postmenopáusica, utilizando la Escala JAEN (Joint
Assessment of Equilibrium and Neuromotor Function), que consta de 20 pruebas de equilibrio funcional.
Se busca también evaluar la relación entre el trastorno del equilibrio y el riesgo de caídas. Materiales y
Métodos. Se planifica un estudio cuantitativo observacional descriptivo transversal con una muestra de
al menos 112 mujeres con osteoporosis postmenopáusica, utilizando la Escala JAEN y otras herramientas
de medición del equilibrio. Resultados. Se espera encontrar una correlación significativa entre la
osteoporosis postmenopáusica y el trastorno del equilibrio. Estos hallazgos resaltan la importancia de
implementar escala JAEN como una herramienta de prevenir o reducir el riesgo de fracturas relacionadas
con caídas en esta población vulnerable.
[EN] Background. Postmenopausal osteoporosis carries a high risk of fragility fractures, many of which result from falls. The purpose is to analyze the magnitude and extent of balance disorders in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis using the JAEN Scale (Joint Assessment of Equilibrium and Neuromotor Function), which consists of 20 functional balance tests. Additionally, the purpose is to evaluate the relationship between balance disorders and the risk of falls. Materials and Methods. A descriptive cross- sectional observational quantitative study is planned with a sample of at least 112 women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, using the JAEN Scale and other balance measurement tools. Results. A significant correlation between postmenopausal osteoporosis and balance disorders is expected. These findings highlight the importance of implementing the JAEN Scale as a tool to prevent or reduce the risk of fall-related fractures in this vulnerable population.
