Objective: To investigate the diagnosis of senile sarcopenia by multi-modal ultrasound parameters and its therapeutic effect. Method: Eighty-four senile patients with sarcopenia diagnosed and treated from August 2019 to March 2022 were selected as the study object and set as the observation group

while 42 healthy elderly patients were selected as the control group during the same period. Ultrasonography was performed to compare the muscle thickness

pinniform Angle

muscle bundle length and Young"s modulus under relaxed and contracted conditions. The total effective rate after routine western medicine and elastic band training was observed

and the score of grip strength

ASMI and SPPB at admission

1

3 and 6 months after intervention. The AUC value

sensitivity and specificity of muscle thickness

pinniate Angle

muscle bundle length and Young"s modulus in diagnosing sarcopenia and predicting curative effect were analyzed by ROC curve model. Results: The muscle thickness

pinniate Angle and muscle bundle length in observation group were lower than those in control group (P < 0.05). Young"s modulus of relaxation and contraction in observation group were lower than those in control group (P < 0.05). Diagnostic efficacy: The AUC values of muscle thickness

pinniform Angle

muscle bundle length

Young"s modulus and multimodal ultrasonic parameters for diagnosing sarcopenia were 0.775

respectively. The total effective rate of 84 cases of senile sarcopenia after treatment was 86.90%

of which 44 cases (52.38%) were significantly effective

29 cases (34.52%) were effective

and 11 cases (13.09%) were ineffective. The grip strength

ASMI and SPPB scores at 1

3 and 6 months after intervention were higher than those at admission (P < 0.05). Predictive efficacy: The AUC values of muscle thickness

pinniate Angle

muscle bundle length and Young"s modulus for predicting the efficacy of sarcopenia were 0.805

P < 0.05. Conclusion: Multi-modal ultrasound parameters have high clinical value in the diagnosis of senile sarcopenia

and can also provide objective guidance for the evaluation of the treatment effect of sarcopenia.
