Sarcopenia was originally defined as age‐related muscle mass. Recent definitions have extended this to include muscle function and muscle quality using different approaches. Current definitions have confirmed the concept that sarcopenia is relevant, frequent, and linked with adverse outcomes, but have not yet been able to extend the diagnosis and management to current clinical practice. The definition of sarcopenia is still work in progress.
