Background Osteoporosis is compromised bone strength that predisposes to fracture. It can be diagnosed by Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) measurement of bone mineral density (BMD). Persons with HIV (PWH) are at higher risk for the development of osteoporosis. As such, the HIV Medicine Association’s (HIVMA) primary care guidelines recommend DEXA screening for all HIV-infected postmenopausal women and men aged ≥50 years. The purpose of this study was to asses the frequency of DEXA utilization within a tertiary-care urban academic center in the Midwest and to identify prevalence of osteoporosis. Methods A representative sample PWH age ≥50 from our institution’s outpatient infectious disease (ID) clinic were included. All subjects had at least one clinic visit in the last year, were on antiretroviral therapy (ART), and virally suppressed. Unblinded chart review was performed to assess if DEXA was ordered, was DEXA ordered by an ID physician, was DEXA completed, results of DEXA, and whether patients were on a tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)-containing regimen. Results 225 charts were reviewed. 186 (83%) patients were men, with a median age of 58 (range of 50–85). DEXA scans were ordered on 39 (17%) patients, 9 (23%) of which were ordered by their ID provider. Twenty-eight (72%) DEXA scans were performed. Of scans completed, 11 (39%) diagnosed osteoporosis, 15 (54%) osteopenia, and 2 (7%) showed normal BMD. Of all charts reviewed, 29 (13%) were on TDF-containing regimens. Of those individuals with diagnosed abnormal BMD (26), only 1 (4%) was on a TDF-containing regimen. Conclusion Despite HIVMA’s recommendation for osteoporosis screening in PWH, only 17% of eligible patients with well-controlled HIV in our clinic had been referred for DEXA. Of those who had undergone DEXA screening, nearly all (93%) had abnormal BMD. Further investigation is necessary to explore provider and patient barriers for osteoporosis screening in PWH.
