| Popis: | Introduction Sarcopenia, a loss of muscle mass and strength with aging, is associated with various TKA-related complications. In 2020, the AWGS published an undated guideline (AWGS 2019) based on studies from East and Southeast Asia. The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence of sarcopenia in Asian female patients awaiting primary total knee arthroplasty due to advanced knee osteoarthritis using the updated AWGS criteria. Materials and Methods The present study included 138 female patients who scheduled for primary TKA with severe osteoarthritis. The included patients were assessed with use of an AWGS 2019 diagnostic criteria based on muscle strength, physical performance, and appendicular skeletal muscle mass. Clinical parameters related to sarcopenia were collected and knee status assessed using the Knee Society scoring system. To better define the association with age, patients were stratified into following four groups: |
