In order to observe and compare the changes of bone mineral density (BMD) of paraplegic patients before and after wearing paraplegic walking device, as well as the influence of age, height, weight and wearing years on BMD, 124 paraplegic patients were tested by quantitative CT (QCT) in Sichuan Rehabilitation Hospital (Sichuan Bayi Rehabilitation Center). The results showed that patients wearing paraplegic walkers had higher bone mineral density than those not wearing paraplegic walkers. BMD decreased with age, but decreased significantly in paraplegic walkers than in non-paraplegic walkers. Height had little effect on BMD, and only patients younger than 20 years old or 31-45 years old had significant influence (P<0.01). Body weight and wearing years were positively correlated with BMD. Conclusions: BMD of paraplegic walkers was significantly different from that of non-paraplegic walkers (P<0.01), the paraplegic walker can increase the stress stimulation to bone, effectively reduce the loss of bone minerals in paraplegic patients, and maintain the BMD in a relatively normal range.
