ABSTRACT

Background: The significance of sarcopenia in recent years is due to its relationship with functional disability (FD). Objective: To determine whether a difference exists in the proportion of sarcopenia in older adults (OA) with different status of FD. Methods: Subjects over 65 years of age without sarcopenia associated diseases were included. Overview of the study: 68 OA (24 with and 44 without FD). FD was assessed by Barthel index and clinical battery (stand-up test, grip dynamometry). Sarcopenia was assessed by Lovett-Kendall scale. Statistical analysis: χ2 and OR (95% CI). Results: Sarcopenia was higher in OA with FD (n = 16 of 24 [66.7%] vs. 3 of 44 [6.8%]). The FD was associated with sarcopenia (OR: 27.3; CI: 6-156). Conclusion: Sarcopenia is associated with functional dependence in the elderly by testing Kendall-Lovett and with various clinical and functional tools for the detection and diagnosis of FD. The proportion of sarcopenia in OA was higher in the presence of FD.
