The reference range of normal value of bone density in the elderly is T value between -1 and 1. The normal value of bone mineral density in the elderly is T value between -1~1. If the T value is between -1~-2.5, there may be bone loss; if the T value is less than -2.5, there is osteoporosis; if the patient has fragility fracture at the same time, it belongs to severe osteoporosis. When the elderly people have bone loss, they should pay attention to it, make life intervention, pay attention to calcium supplementation in daily life, exercise appropriately, and eat more calcium-containing foods, such as milk, eggs, etc. They can also take medicines such as calcium lactate, calcium gluconate, vitamin D, etc. under the guidance of the doctor for treatment. This is because if the elderly are not given the right intervention when their bone mass decreases, they will soon enter the osteoporosis stage, which can easily lead to fractures. Common medications used to treat osteoporosis include alendronate and bisphosphonates. Older people with low bone density value should seek medical treatment in time, and should pay attention to calcium supplementation, balanced nutrition, and combination of work and rest in daily life.
