Physical Performance Assessment

Physical Performance Assessment is a clinical evaluation procedure that objectively quantifies an individual’s functional capacity—particularly mobility, balance, muscle strength, and endurance—using standardized performance-based tests (such as gait speed, Short Physical Performance Battery, or chair-stand tests) to characterize and stage sarcopenia and related functional impairments.
