Navigating sarcopenia in COVID-19 patients and survivors: Understanding the long-term consequences, transitioning from hospital to community with mechanisms and interventions for future preparedness
- First Published: 06 February 2024

The COVID-19 pandemic has had a global impact, yet limited attention has been given to the comorbid condition of sarcopenia. This paper explores the shared underlying mechanisms between COVID-19 and sarcopenia and highlights the critical importance of addressing sarcopenia for optimal COVID-19 patient and survivor outcomes. By implementing comprehensive strategies that encompass screening, nutritional interventions, physical activity promotion, psychological support, and community-based initiatives, health experts can effectively control sarcopenia and improve overall well-being in the post-COVID-19 era. Additionally, further research is imperative to deepen our understanding of the relationship between COVID-19 and sarcopenia and to develop evidence-based management approaches.
