Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The main study parameter is the reproducibility of different methods to define muscle mass in obese patients. We will look both at intra- and inter-observer variation.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
We will also investigate correlation between quality of life and muscle mass and strength. Furthermore, the correlation between 24h urine creatinine and measurements of muscle mass and strength will also be studied.
