ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT BACKGROUND:
Social distancing has led to lifestyle changes among older adults during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.OBJECTIVES:
This study aimed to estimate the prevalence risk of sarcopenia (RS) and investigate its associated factors during the COVID-19 pandemic in older Brazilian adults. DESIGN ANDSETTING:
Cross-sectional observational analysis of baseline data as part of the Remobilize Study.METHODS:
Participants in the study were older adults (≥ 60 years), excluding those who were bedridden or institutionalized. The data collected consisted of answers about the RS (SARC-F), functional status, walking, sedentary behavior (SB), pain, comorbidity, and life space mobility.RESULTS:
A total of 1,482 older adults (70 ± 8.14 years, 74% women) participated in the study, and an RS prevalence of 17.1% was found. (95% confidence interval [CI] 15.25-19.15%). The adjusted multivariate model showed a significant association between RS and functional limitation (odds ratio [OR] 19.05; CI 13.00-28.32), comorbidity (OR 5.11; CI 3.44-7.81), pain (OR 4.56; CI 3.33-6.28), total walking (OR 0.99; CI 0.99-1.00), SB of 8-10 hours (OR 1.85; CI 1.15-2.93), and SB of > 10 hours (OR 3.93; CI 2.48-6.22). RS was associated with mobility during the pandemic (OR 0.97; CI 0.96-0.98). P < 0.05.CONCLUSIONS:
During the pandemic, the prevalence of RS in older Brazilians was estimated at 17.1%. Moderate to severe functional limitation, comorbidities, presence of pain, walking, longer SB period, and reduced life space mobility significantly contributed to RS in older adults during the pandemic.
