Abstract:
Sarcopenia is a common degenerative disease that often occurs in the elderly.It not only increases the risks of falling down and disability in the elderly patients, but also is related to the adverse outcome after operation.The early diagnosis and early intervention are of great clinical significance for improving the postoperative situation and increasing the survival rate of the patients.Based on the latest literature, this paper illustrates in detail the diagnosis of sarcopenia, its influences on postoperative complications, and perioperative clinical interventions in the elderly patients.
