Brief Summary:
The aim of our study is to examine the effects of sarcopenia and dynapenia on inspiratory muscle strength and cardiorespiratory fitness in geriatric individuals.
Detailed Description:
Within the scope of the study, anterior thigh thicknesses of geriatric individuals will be evaluated by ultrasonography and individuals will be divided into 3 groups as dynapenic, sarcopenic and normal according to the ISarcoPRM algorithm, using the STAR method and Hand-grip. The Powerbreathe K5 device will be used to evaluate the inspiratory muscle strength of geriatric individuals in both groups, and the 2-minute step test will be used to evaluate cardiorespiratory fitness. The study will be carried out with 100 geriatric individuals. As a result of the study, first the inspiratory muscle strength and cardiorespiratory fitness of sarcopenic, dynapenic and non-sarcopenic groups will be compared. Afterwards, the relationship between anterior thigh thickness and inspiratory muscle strength of all geriatric individuals participating in the study will be examined.
