2022-06-22T08:20:45+02:00

June 20, 2022 Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia, and Muscle - 2022 Feb;13(1):264-275. doi: 10.1002/jcsm.12871. Sarcopenia is a progressive loss of muscle function and mass that is mostly related to aging [1]. Due to sarcopenia’s adverse outcomes in several conditions, diagnosis and integration into treatment plans is highly recommended [1]. In the care of older adults, cognitive impairment, functional decline, or acute life-threatening medical conditions, such as severe pneumonia, myocardial infarctions, or highly proliferative hematological conditions can preclude patients from self-reported assessment. In addition, a severe acute condition can lead to a massive functional decline within a short time-frame. Thus, physical resilience can be underestimated if a superior premorbid condition is not known to the treating physician. To overcome these barriers, the authors aimed to validate the SARC-F questionnaire, a broadly used screening questionnaire for severe sarcopenia-related functional impairments [2], for the use of proxy-reported information [...]
