Predicting Sarcopenia and Frailty Risk in Patients Post Heart Transplantation
Multivariate analysis conducted on patients post-HTx revealed that functional capacity was associated with both sarcopenia and frailty risk. Additionally, diet quality was a predictive factor of frailty, while diabetes and kinesiophobia were predictors of sarcopenia. These findings emphasize the importance of proper management to prevent frailty and sarcopenia, which share common associated factors.
