The literature lacks a consistent review of musculoskeletal symptoms in postmenopausal women.
To identify features, measurements, determinants, treatments, and outcomes of musculoskeletal symptoms in postmenopausal women.
A scoping review was completed using six databases: Embase, Medline, Cochrane, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Scopus up to December 2022. Sixty-three articles were identified.
Musculoskeletal symptoms in postmenopausal women include somatic symptoms of non-specific origin, upper and lower limb symptoms, spinal pain, and decline in physical performance. Measurements were categorized into four groups: musculoskeletal symptoms for menopause, general musculoskeletal symptoms, menopause-specific quality of life, and general quality of life questionnaires. The determinants were grouped into four themes: demographics, physical determinants, psychosocial determinants, and lifestyle. Pharmacological interventions, supplementation options, and exercise regimens exist for postmenopausal women with musculoskeletal symptoms.
A comprehensive policy is needed to address musculoskeletal symptoms in postmenopausal women, promoting diverse treatments for improved quality of life.
文献中缺乏对绝经后妇女肌肉骨骼症状的一致综述。
确定绝经后妇女肌肉骨骼症状的特征、测量方法、决定因素、治疗方法和结果。
使用 Embase、Medline、Cochrane、CINAHL、Web of Science 和 Scopus 六个数据库进行范围综述，截至 2022 年 12 月共确定了 63 篇文章。
绝经后妇女的肌肉骨骼症状包括非特异性起源的躯体症状、上下肢症状、脊柱疼痛和身体机能下降。测量方法分为四组：与绝经相关的肌肉骨骼症状、一般肌肉骨骼症状、绝经特异性生活质量和一般生活质量问卷。决定因素分为四个主题：人口统计学、身体决定因素、心理社会决定因素和生活方式。对于有肌肉骨骼症状的绝经后妇女，存在药物干预、补充选择和运动方案。
需要制定综合政策来解决绝经后妇女的肌肉骨骼症状，促进多样化的治疗方法以提高生活质量。
