SARCOPENIA EVALUATION METHOD, SARCOPENIA EVALUATION DEVICE, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE RECORDING MEDIUM IN WHICH SARCOPENIA EVALUATION PROGRAM IS RECORDED

摘要

A sarcopenia evaluation method in a sarcopenia evaluation device that evaluates sarcopenia based on a walking motion of a subject includes: acquiring walking data related to walking of the subject; detecting, from the walking data, at least one walking parameter of an angle of a knee joint of one leg in a stance phase of the one leg of the subject, an angle of the knee joint of the one leg in a swing phase of the one leg, a vertical displacement of a toe of one foot in the stance phase, a vertical displacement of the toe of the one foot in the swing phase, an angle of an ankle joint of the one foot in the stance phase, and an angle of the ankle joint of the one foot in the swing phase; and determining whether or not the subject has sarcopenia using at least one walking parameter.
