摘要
This article reviews the prevalence of loss of muscle mass and function, (sarcopenia) alongside malnutrition in the older population (>65 years). It outlines what is meant by both sarcopenia and malnutrition and looks at how these conditions can interact to cause detrimental outcomes in both underweight and overweight older adults. It also details some of the potential consequences of loss of muscle mass on the effective functioning of the human body and clinical outcomes and includes tips for nurses on how they can incorporate simple strategies into everyday care to both identify and treat patients at risk of sarcopenia and malnutrition.
