Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Obesity2 minutesThe fat percentage and the Body Mass Index measured by bioimpedance analysis using Tanita TBF300 is recorded. For BMI, 30 kg/m2 and over is classified as obesity whereas fat percentage of %35 and %28 (woman and man, respectively) and over was classified as obese.
Muscle Strength5 minutesMeasured by hand held dynamometer. The cut-off scores for man and woman are 27 kg and 16 kg, respectively
Muscle Mass2 minutesMeasured by bioimpedance analysis using Tanita TBF300. The cut-off scores for man and woman are 9,2 kg/m2 and 7,4 kg/m2, respectively
Muscle Performance3 minutesTested by 4 meter walk test. If the gait speed is lower than 0,8 m/s, the test is positive.
T score1 hourT scores of spine and femur neck examined with Dual X-Ray Absorptiometry. A T score\<-2,5 will be classified as osteoporosis while a T score between -1 and -2,5 will be counted as osteopenia

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
History of falls1 minutesA patient's self stated history of falls will be considered as having a history of fall or not.
