Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Diagnose sarcopenia using EWGSOP2 criteria including muscle strength, muscle mass (ALMI), and physical performance thresholds

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • EWGSOP2 criteria including muscle strength — The ewgsop2 criteria including muscle strength recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Muscle mass — The muscle mass recorded for the scenario being assessed.
  • Physical performance thresholds — The physical performance thresholds recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the ewgsop2 sarcopenia result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the EWGSOP2 criteria including muscle strength, muscle mass, physical performance thresholds for the scenario you are assessing. Diagnose sarcopenia using EWGSOP2 criteria including muscle strength, muscle mass (ALMI), and physical performance thresholds. Use the ewgsop2 sarcopenia result to inform your calculation.
