摘要

肌少症代表身體肌肉量減少、肌力減弱，會影響老年人日常活動、功能及生活品質，也會增加老年人的死亡率。肌力減弱的透析病人有較高的死亡率。建議預防肌少症的營養處方（蛋白質攝取量1.2 g/kg/day）跟長期透析病人相似，鼓勵透析病人攝取足量且高生理價蛋白質，可維持良好營養狀況且對預防肌少症有正向幫助。

Sarcopenia means loss of muscle mass and muscle strength which causes low physical performance and a high risk of mortality on elderly. Dialysis patients with low muscle strength have high mortality rate as well. Adequate nutrition, especially high protein intake (＞ 1.2g/kg/day) has proven positive effects on sarcopenia. The recommendation of protein intake for preventing sarcopenia is similar to the one for dialysis patients. Encourage dialysis patients to follow the recommendation is needed.
