Improvement of Sarcopenia in Patients Following Two Different Diets

Status Withdrawn

Clinical Trial Summary

Sarcopenia is defined as a decrease in muscular strength and muscle mass, accompanied by a decrease in physical performance. Seniors might develop sarcopenia because of a decreased physical activity and a decreased protein intake. Many patients also develop sarcopenia after a long stay in an intensive care unit.

Protein intake is very important when treating sarcopenia. However, meeting the protein requirements at home proves difficult. Oral dietary supplements, given in addition to the other known recommendations, might provide a solution.

This study will assess the efficacy of the oral dietary supplements for the treatment of sarcopenia.
