Developing an exercise intervention to minimise hip bone mineral density loss following traumatic lower limb amputation: a Delphi study

Keywords:  Exercise prescription; bone health; lower limb loss Why is this study important? Previous research found those with lower limb amputations had reduced bone mineral density (BMD) at the hip (1). Lower hip BMD increases the risk of a hip fracture. Exercise interventions have been shown to improve BMD in other populations (2-4), but this […]
