Summary

This study tests a new technology (HD-sEMG) that monitors muscle signals to better diagnose sarcopenia—a condition where older adults lose muscle mass and strength. Researchers will enroll 846 people aged 75 and older who are hospitalized and at risk for sarcopenia. The goal is to see if this technology can accurately identify those with the condition, helping doctors intervene earlier to prevent falls and loss of independence.
