Comparing bedside and CT-derived muscle mass assessment methodologies at intensive care unit admission: A critical step towards bedside detection of reduced muscle mass
At ICU admission, correlations between bedside methods and L3 CT-derived muscle mass were low to moderate. Cut-off values were derived to detect reduced skeletal muscle upon ICU admission. However, further validation is required before clinical implementation.
