Short Physical Performance Battery and all-cause mortality: systematic review and meta-analysis

Abstract: Background: The Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) is a well-established tool to assess lower extremity physical performance status. Its predictive ability for all-cause mortality has been sparsely reported, but with conflicting results in different subsets of participants. The aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis investigating the relationship between SPPB score and all-cause mortality.

“…These findings may be explained by the pathogenesis of frailty in CKD being distinct from the general older population, with factors such as the accumulation of uraemic toxins, reduced appetite, metabolic acidosis and anabolic hormone dysregulation contributing more prominently [2,18]. Walking speed, hand grip strength and the SPPB have all been proposed as frailty screening measures [17,24,25,45,46]. However, poor physical performance of the lower limbs, rather than upper limbs, is most predictive of outcomes in patients with CKD [47].…”

“…In children, functional impairment has been associated with higher wait‐list and post‐LT mortality, highlighting the importance of a thorough assessment of muscle functionality . We recommend a minimum of 2 muscle tests to assess muscle function because impairments may not be captured with single measurement . In adults and children (6‐18 years), the use of validated and easy to perform tests, such as the hand grip and sit‐to‐stand tests, would enable the assessment of muscle strength .…”
