Özet
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between loss of functions and bone mineral density (BMD) in hemiplegic patients after stroke. Material and Method: 41 patients were evaluated. The Brunnstrom values, the Functional Independent Measurement (FIM) and the Functional Ambulation Categories (FAC) values were recorded. BMD measurements were evaluated with dual-energy X-ray absorbtiometry (DXA). Results: BMD decrease was significantly greater on the paretic side compared with the nonparetic side. Patients who had not ambulated lost of their BMD in the paretic side and the loss was significantly higher than those who had ambulated. There was a positive correlation between FIM score and BMD values in the affected side. Conclusion: Our results suggest that the rapidity of the BMD loss is correlated to the functional independent and ambulation categories in poststroke hemiplegic patients.
