Vertebral fractures leading to low back pain, spinal deformity, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and cardiopulmonary dysfunctions decrease the quality of life (QOL) in patients with osteoporosis. We had investigated the change of QOL in osteoporosis patients with back pain for 6 months. The relief of the pain improved "activities of daily living" , but did not "leisure, social activities" , "health perception" , "posture, figure" , and "fall, mental factors" . The control of pain and social approach such as fall prevention program are necessary to improve the QOL in patients with vertebral fractures.
