Effect of physiotherapy on the promotion of bone mineralization in preterm infants : a randomized controlled trial
© 2022. The Author(s)..
Preterm infants have a low level of bone mineralization compared to those born at term. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of reflex locomotion therapy (RLT) on bone mineralization and growth in preterm infants and compare its effect to other physiotherapy procedures. Forty-six preterm infants born at 29-34 weeks were randomized into three groups: one group received RLT (n = 17); the other group received passive movements with gentle joint compression (n = 14); and the control group received massages (n = 15). All the treatments were performed at the neonatal unit for one month. The main outcome measure was bone mineralization, which was measured using the tibial speed of sound (Tibial-SOS). All the groups were similar in terms of gestational age (31.8 ± 1.18), birth weight (1,583.41 ± 311.9), and Tibia-SOS (1,604.7 ± 27.9) at the beginning of the intervention. At the end of the study, significant differences were found among the groups in the Tibial-SOS [F(4,86) = 2.77, p = 0.049, ηp2 = 0.114] in terms of the benefit to the RLT group. In conclusion, RLT has been effective at improving Tibial-SOS levels and has been more effective than other physical therapy modalities; therefore, it could be considered an effective physiotherapeutic modality for the prevention and treatment of osteopenia from prematurity.
