ABSTRACT

Objective To study effects of salmon calcitonin and Heng Gu bone healing reagent on vertebral osteoporotic fracture(OPF).Methods From Nov.2007 to Dec.2009,82 cases of vertebral OPF were treated.These cases were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.The treatment group(42 cascs)were treated with salmon calcitonin and Heng Gu bone healing reagent.The control group(40 cases)received salmon calcitonin only.Pain relief of the 2 groups wag compared.Results Before treatment,the 82 patients were scored 6-9 points by visual analogue scales(VAS)and pain scores of the 2 groups were similar (P>0.05).3 days,5 days,8 days and 15 days after treatment,VAS scores of the 2 groups were significantly different(P<0.01).Compared to the control group,the treatment group had pain relief in shorter time and their bone mineral density Was better showed by the 3-month-later review.Conclusion The combination therapy of salmon calcitonin and Heng Gu bone healing reagent in treating vertebral OPF has better effect of pain relief and bone formation,which is a safe and effective method.
