The overall goal is to improve care in patients with - and help prevent - sarcopenia. Understanding the frequency of and risk factors for developing sarcopenia in an acute hospital setting, may help shed light on potential interventions and thus inform the development of future therapeutic strategies. It involves crucial implications for research, clinical practice, and policy towards optimal aging.', 'detailedDescription': 'Background: Sarcopenia is a nutrition-related disease leading to physical impairment and adverse clinical outcomes. Data regarding its characteristics in hospitalized patients are limited.\n\nAim: This study will assess in older patients admitted to acute medical wards, the prevalence, incidence, and risk factors for development of sarcopenia, or alteration in its severity, and evaluate associated clinical adverse outcomes.\n\nMethods: This collaboratively-designed, longitudinal prospective observational study will be carried out in patients aged \\>70 admitted to acute geriatric units in 9 European centers. The new sarcopenia diagnostic criteria of the European Working Group on Sarcopenia 2 (EWGSOP2) will be tested at admission and discharge, using isometric handgrip dynamometry, gait speed, and, pragmatically, calf circumference. There will be 3- and 12-month telephone follow-up (including the SARC-F questionnaire).\n\nDiscussion: Our study will be the first collaboration to assess the prevalence and incidence of sarcopenia (EWGSOP2) and its risk factors in hospitalized patients across Europe.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '70 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Older patients hospitalized in acute care units due to medical processes', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients aged \\>70 admitted to acute hospital medical units\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Length of hospital stay anticipated to be \\<24 hours\n* Hip/lower limb fractures\n* Major amputations of the lower leg\n* Terminally ill patients admitted for palliative care'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04039620', 'acronym': 'EAMA9+', 'briefTitle': 'EAMA Sarcopenia in Acute Care Patients in 9+European Countries', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Parc de Salut Mar'}, 'officialTitle': 'Sarcopenia in Acute Care Patients: Protocol for the European Collaboration of Geriatric Surveys: Sarcopenia 9+ European Academy for Medicine of Ageing (EAMA) Project', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '2018/8355/I'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'interventions': [{'name': 'Observational study, no interventions expected', 'type': 'OTHER', 'description': 'No interventions are planned'}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '08003', 'city': 'Barcelona', 'country': 'Spain', 'facility': 'Sanchez RodrÃguez', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 41.38879, 'lon': 2.15899}}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Parc de Salut Mar', 'class': 'OTHER'}, 'collaborators': [{'name': 'Jagiellonian University', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Université Libre de Bruxelles', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Agaplesion Bethesda Clinic Ulm, Ulm, Germany', 'class': 'UNKNOWN'}, {'name': 'Slagelse Hospital', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Charles University, Czech Republic', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'NOVA Medical School', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Karolinska Institutet', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'Catholic University of the Sacred Heart', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'University Hospital, Ghent', 'class': 'OTHER'}, {'name': 'University of Exeter', 'class': 'OTHER'}], 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
