Abstract

Objective: to collect data on the main tools used for the diagnosis of sarcopenia in the elderly, published from January 2017 to March 2022. Method: Integrative review, following six recommended steps and using PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses ). Articles published between 2017 and 2022 that listed tools for the diagnosis of sarcopenia in the Medline and Cochrane databases in English, Portuguese and Spanish were examined, being organized according to title, year, country of publication, impact factor of the journal. Result: The 10 articles indicate the role of various areas of knowledge, emphasizing that sarcopenia in the elderly has a multidimensional character, and there is a need for convergence of knowledge. Conclusion: According to the findings in the literature, the tools are still being improved and being used for the evaluation of the elderly, still in an incipient way, however, tools of the new consensus are already serving as a unification of languages ​​among researchers.
