Clinical framework

The EWGSOP2 F·A·C·S pathway,
device by device.

Every step of the international sarcopenia diagnostic guideline is covered by a SarcoSync device. One platform, one dashboard, one patient record.

F
Step 1 · Find
Case finding
SARC-F questionnaire screens patients at risk. 5 questions, 2 minutes, flags who needs full assessment.
SARC-F digital screener
A
Step 2 · Assess
Muscle strength
Grip strength (3 trials) and five-times chair stand. Primary indicator of probable sarcopenia per EWGSOP2 and AWGS2.
BLE Dynamometer · Chair Pad
C
Step 3 · Confirm
Muscle quantity
Skeletal muscle mass index via BIA. Calf circumference as rapid AWGS2-endorsed proxy. Both included in the platform.
Circumference Tape · BIA (Pro)
S
Step 4 · Severity
Physical performance
Full SPPB — gait speed, balance stance (3 positions), chair stand time. SPPB ≤8 flags severe sarcopenia.
Walk Test · Force Plate · Chair Pad
Step 1 platform

Eight instruments.
One dashboard.

Every SarcoSync device connects wirelessly to the clinical dashboard. No manual data entry. 10 minutes, complete EWGSOP2 classification.

The clinical case

Sarcopenia is under-diagnosed.
Your clinic can change that.

Common questions

Answered honestly.

Does operating SarcoSync require a specialist? +
No. SarcoSync is designed to be operated by a trained paramedic or clinical assistant after a one-day onboarding session by our clinical application specialist (physiotherapy background). The physician reviews the auto-generated EWGSOP2 classification and severity report.
How does SarcoSync handle Indian patients? +
SarcoSync applies both EWGSOP2 (European) and AWGS2 (Asian) cutoffs simultaneously, presenting results against both reference standards. Our Indian normative database — built through multi-site data collection at AIIMS, ILBS and partner centres — provides Indian-specific age and sex references.
What is Collateral Medical's regulatory status? +
Collateral Medical Pvt. Ltd. holds CDSCO Class A and Class B manufacturing and distribution licences. The company is ISO 13485 certified. All devices are registered under India's Medical Devices Rules 2017. The clinical dashboard is a SaMD Class A product.
What is the IIT Bombay connection? +
Key SarcoSync devices — including the BLE grip dynamometer and static force plate — were co-developed with faculty and research groups at IIT Bombay's IDC School of Design and Department of Mechanical Engineering. ColMed Healthtech, our product development entity, is co-founded with an IIT Bombay professor.
Can SarcoSync integrate with our EMR? +
Yes. SarcoSync supports ABHA FHIR R4 integration for ABDM-compliant health records — the same production-approved integration live in ColMed's HepaBuddy platform. Standard PDF export works with any EMR. API access available on Pro and Complete tiers.
Is after-sales service available across India? +
ColMed operates a pan-India network covering 700+ districts through 100+ OEM partners and 1,000+ resellers. Hardware servicing, consumable supply, and software updates are included in your annual platform fee. A dedicated clinical application specialist supports your account for the first 90 days.
