Without proper management, sarcopenia may result in adverse health outcomes. Continuously maintain healthy lifestyle, such as being physically active, taking adequate protein in daily diet, are effective in preventing and managing sarcopenia. e-Health has been used successfully to translate evidence-based lifestyle interventions into daily practice by enhancing self-awareness, promoting self-monitor and sustaining self-management for other populations with different health problems. This project aims to develop, implement and evaluate the preliminary effects of an e-Health System to encourage older adults with sarcopenia to maintain healthy lifestyles (i.e. regular exercise and adequate intake of high-quality protein). Combining the concepts of smart health, the System aims to enhance users' self-monitoring (Level 1) and self-management (Level 2) of sarcopenia. Level 1 aims to enhance participants' and their family members' awareness of the risks of sarcopenia through continued monitoring. The System will perform baseline and regular subjective (such as self-administered questionnaires) and objective (such as activity levels by an embedded accelerometer) assessments on the participants. The embedded risk calculator in the System will analyze the scores obtained from different assessments and then recommend participants to follow the healthy lifestyle interventions in Level 2. Level 2 aims to enhance participants' and their family members' ability to manage the health problems related sarcopenia. The System will recommend two major evidence-based lifestyle interventions, including physical exercise and nutritional advice, based on the analysis of the assessment data in Level 1. These interventions will be conducted during the four face-to-face sessions and continuously self-practised at home. The interventions will provide interactive, immediate feedback to the participants and their family members to improve their involvement. The participants and their family members can monitor their progress via the System. The investigators hypothesize that the experimental group who has adopted the e-Health system in their daily life to manage sarcopenia will exhibit milder symptoms of sarcopenia and more sustainable self-management ability than participants in the control group who has received usual care.","overall_status":"Unknown","phases":[],"study_type":"INTERVENTIONAL","sponsor":"The Hong Kong Polytechnic University","enrollment":88,"countries":["Hong Kong"],"start_date":"2024-05-06","completion_date":"2026-01-01","last_update_date":"2024-03-22","source_url":"https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06088511","editorial_summary":"A registered study indexed because it matched monitored longevity research terms.
