Variations in Muscle Strategies for Mitigating Fall Risk in Postmenopausal Women with Osteoporosis during Head/Knee-Level Tasks

Husam Almalki

The reaching-transporting task as an essential daily activity impacts balance control and falling in older women. This study investigated the different muscle strategies during the head/knee level of the functional reaching-transporting task in postmenopausal women with osteoporosis. Osteoporotic women have more muscle activities during the reaching-transporting task, especially at the knee level, compared to the head level. Their muscle weakness may lead to insufficient stability during the task and cause disturbance and falling, which requires further investigation.
