Embodiment approach

[0098] Below, based on figure 1 The sarcopenia evaluation system according to this embodiment will be described.

[0099] figure 1 It is a block diagram showing the configuration of the sarcopenia evaluation system according to the embodiment of the present invention.

[0100] figure 1 The shown sarcopenia assessment system includes a sarcopenia assessment device 1 , a camera 2 , and a display unit 3 .

[0101] Camera 2 images a walking test subject. The camera 2 outputs moving image data showing a walking test subject to the sarcopenia evaluation device 1 . The video camera 2 is connected to the sarcopenia evaluation device 1 by wire or wirelessly.

[0102] The sarcopenia assessment device 1 includes a processor 11 and a memory 12 .

[0103] The processor 11 is, for example, a CPU (Central Processing Unit), and includes a data acquisition unit 111 , a walking parameter detection unit 112 , a sarcopenia determination unit 113 , and an evaluation result presentation unit ...

Abstract

The invention provides a sarcopenia evaluation method and evaluation device, and a storage medium. Provided is a sarcopenia evaluation assessment method for a sarcopenia evaluation assessment device that assesses sarcopenia on the basis of the walking action of a test subject, the sarcopenia assessment method comprising: acquiring walking data relating to walking of the test subject; depending onwalking data, detecting the angle of the knee joint of one leg in the foot standing period of one leg, the angle of the knee joint of one leg in the foot suspending period of one leg, the displacementof the toe part of one leg in the vertical direction in the foot standing period and the displacement of the toe part of one leg in the vertical direction in the foot suspending period of one leg ofthe test object; at least one of the angle of the ankle joint of one leg in the foot standing period and the angle of the ankle joint of the other leg in the foot suspending period; and judging whether the test object is the sarcopenia or not by utilizing the at least one walking parameter. According to this configuration, sarcopenia can be evaluated simply and with high accuracy.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a technique for evaluating sarcopenia based on the walking behavior of a test subject. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in order to understand the health status of the elderly, technology that can easily estimate the body function is being developed. Especially in the elderly, muscle mass decreases with age and fat mass increases. Generally, a condition showing a decrease in skeletal muscle mass with aging is called sarcopenia. Sarcopenia is said to be strongly associated with falls, broken bones, bedridden, and frailty. Therefore, it is necessary to detect the elderly with sarcopenia as early as possible and take countermeasures. [0003] Conventionally, there have been proposed techniques for evaluating cognitive functions or motor functions based on parameters measured from daily walking. [0004] For example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2013-255786 discloses a method of estimating the...
