0463_SHVGR_Sarcopenia_Live
Description:
Understanding sarcopenia in older adults is crucial because it is a significant contributor to functional decline, increased risk of falls and fractures, higher mortality rates, reduced quality of life and potential loss of independence in the elderly, ultimately impacting their overall health and lifespan. Due to the progressive loss of muscle mass and function that occurs with age, early identification and intervention strategies can help mitigate these negative outcomes.
Target Audience
Nurse Practitioner (NP)
Nurse, Registered (RN)
Pharmacists (PharmD)
Physicians (MD or DO)
Physician Assistant (PA)
Psychologists
Social Workers
Other Healthcare Professionals
Learning Objectives
By the end of this activity, learners should be able to:
1.) Define sarcopenia, aka age-related muscle loss.
2.) Contrast advantages and disadvantages of methods to assess sarcopenia.
3.) Examine challenges to developing sarcopenia treatments.
