In this study, we will evaluate 24-hour movement behaviors (physical activity, sedentary behavior, and sleep) in community-dwelling older adults and older patients without limitations in physical activity, and examine their association with physical frailty (sarcopenia).
Others
To develop and validate a triaxial accelerometer based index using 24 hour movement behavior data for predicting the onset of physical frailty (sarcopenia) in community dwelling older adults and older patients without limitations in physical activity.
The primary outcome will be physical frailty (sarcopenia), and the primary exposure variable will be movement data assessed using a wrist-worn triaxial accelerometer. Secondary outcomes will include components of physical frailty (sarcopenia): appendicular skeletal muscle mass, handgrip strength, gait speed, five times sit to stand time, and lower limb muscle strength: as well as health-related quality of life and related measures.
