Relation Between Respiratory Muscle Strength and Skeletal Muscle Mass and Hand Grip Strength in the Healthy Elderly

Abstract: ObjectiveTo evaluate sarcopenic indices in relation to respiratory muscle strength (RMS) in elderly people.MethodsThis study included 65 volunteers over the age of 60 (30 men and 35 women). The skeletal muscle mass index (SMI) was measured using bioimpedance analysis. Limb muscle function was assessed by handgrip strength (HGS), the Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), and gait speed. RMS was addressed by maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP) and maximal expiratory pressure (MEP) using a spirometer. The rel… Show more

“…Sarcopenia has a complex multifactorial pathogenesis, which involves lifestyle habits (i.e., malnutrition, physical inactivity), disease triggers, and age-dependent biological changes (i.e., chronic inflammation, mitochondrial abnormalities, loss of neuromuscular junctions, reduced satellite cell numbers, hormonal alterations) [108,109]. Sarcopenia is a whole-body process, affecting not only lower extremities, but also muscles dedicated to breathing, mastication, and swallowing [14,[18][19][20][21][22]. In particular, swallowing is a complex mechanism involving several head and neck muscles simultaneously and in conjunction to coordinate the entire process [110].…”

“…Interestingly, in recent years, it has been highlighted that sarcopenia is not limited to lower limbs, but is a whole-body process [14][15][16], also affecting the muscles devoted to chewing and swallowing [10,17], with a negative impact on food intake. In fact, atrophy of muscles critical for the respiratory and swallowing functions has been reported [14,[18][19][20][21][22].…”

“…The proposed method was the most accurate compared with other existing algorithms. Moreover, in those cases affected by parasitic effects the proposed algorithm provided better approximations to the bioimpedance values than a reference device.Sensors 2020, 20, 70 2 of 27 during pregnancy and lactation [6], in the evaluation of the risk of various pathologies [7,8], as a marker or direct cause of disease [9,10], during the process of decision making in an illness [11], aging [12] or rehabilitation processes [13], as a complement to the diagnosis and follow-up of conditions related to the cardiovascular system [14,15], in oncology [16] and even in sports science [17], among others.Despite the advances in the clinical application of bioimpedance, there are still some challenges to be solved, such as the integration of devices into e-Health systems supporting remote user monitoring [18]. In addition, the complexity of bioimpedance systems is usually quite high (current injection, voltage measurement, demodulation, processing, etc.)…”
