“…Handgrip strength in 1 small study was positively correlated with linear growth but not lean tissue mass in pediatric patients with CKD . Routine use of handgrip strength is also limited to children old enough to use the dynamometer, and interpretation of results is to children over 3 years of age based on available population norms .…”

Malnutrition occurs when nutrient intake does not meet the needs for normal body functions and as a consequence leads to alterations of growth and development in children. Chronic illness puts children at risk for developing malnutrition. Because of children's rapid periods of growth and development, early diagnosis, prevention, and management of malnutrition are paramount. The reasons for malnutrition in children with chronic disease are multifactorial and are related to the underlying disease and nonillness-associated factors. This review addresses the causes, evaluation, and management of malnutrition in pediatric congenital heart disease, chronic kidney disease, liver disease, and cystic fibrosis.

“…Handgrip strength seems to be more impaired in the advanced stages (i.e., kidney failure) 14 . Thus, this well-established sarcopenia trait (i.e., low muscle strength) is a common feature in pediatric patients with CKD.…”

Should we consider sarcopenia in pediatric patients with chronic kidney disease? A preliminary cross-sectional analysis

We investigated sarcopenia and its traits in children and adolescents with chronic kidney disease. MethodsPhysical function was assessed using handgrip strength (HGS) and the 60-second sit-to-stand (STS-60).Body composition was assessed by bioelectrical impedance and anthropometry through mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC). Probable sarcopenia was considered as low HGS, whereas sarcopenia by adding low MUAC. ResultsTwenty-two patients were evaluated (11 ± 4 years and 59% boys). Sarcopenia prevalence was 50%. Low physical function by HGS and STS-60 was 59% and 100%, respectively, while low MUAC in 77%. HGS was positively associated with all body composition variables in the non-dialysis and peritoneal dialysis groups; on the other hand, the STS-60 was not signi cantly associated with any of the body composition variables. ConclusionAmong pediatric patients with CKD, the prevalence of sarcopenia was high. Therefore, strategic interventions to body composition will likely confer positive bene ts on HGS, but not on STS-60.

“…Additionally, in another study, according to the degree of CKD, there were differences in the HGS z-score, which found those with stage 2-5 CKD had a lower HGS z-score than those with stage 1 CKD [59]. HGS is a reliable bedside tool for nutritional assessments in children with CKD [55,59,60].…”

Muscle wasting is associated with a worse quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality among hospitalized children, especially those with chronic diseases. This review was conducted to summarize the data available on the most feasible and accurate diagnostic methods for detecting muscle wasting among hospitalized children, especially to review the evidence of the accuracy and feasibility of conducting assessments using handgrip strength (HGS). Many diagnostic methods are used in hospital settings to assess muscle wasting, by evaluating either muscle mass or strength, with evidentiary support for assessing muscle mass provided using ultrasonography, magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, dual-energy X-ray, bioelectrical impedance analysis, and anthropometry measurements. Currently, the most common diagnostic method used to detect muscle strength loss is the handheld dynamometer. Studies support using HGS among healthy and hospitalized children to assess the overall nutritional status and especially muscle function. However, almost all of these studies have been conducted in hospital settings and recruited children with different chronic diseases using a small sample size. More longitudinal cohort studies with large sample sizes are needed to assess the accuracy and feasibility of using HGS among hospitalized children.
