The value of muscle in improving clinical outcomes
Abstract

This article discusses the importance of muscle mass in improving clinical outcomes and quality of life. There is a need to change the current malnutrition management approach from a focus on weight to targeting muscle mass. Screening tools should include assessment of muscle mass, and there should be a focus on the maintenance of muscle mass as a malnutrition management strategy.
