简要总结
Observational prospective study in older adults admitted to an Acute Geriatric Unit, in which sarcopenia will be evaluated by ultrasound in the anterior rectus femoris muscle.
详细描述
The main objective of the study is to estimate, by means of portable ultrasound, parameters of muscle quantity and quality (anterior rectus femoris muscle area, width and echostructure ) in older adults hospitalized in Acute Geriatric Units for medical reasons.

结局指标
主要结局
Muscle mass (the anterior rectus femoris muscle)
时间窗: 15 days
The evolution of muscle mass between admission and discharge will be assessed by ultrasound
Prevalence of sarcopenia on admission
时间窗: 72 hours
Prevalence of sarcopenia on admission. A prevalent case of sarcopenia will be considered if a patient fulfills the EWGSOP2 at admission
Incidence of sarcopenia between admission and discharge
时间窗: 15 days
An incident case of sarcopenia will be considered if a patient not fulfilling EWGSOP2 diagnostic criteria on admission, will meet diagnostic criteria at discharge of sarcopenia at discharge (diagnosis will be considered as a dichotomous variable -yes/no-).
