Body composition in Nepalese children using isotope dilution: the production of ethnic-specific calibration equations and an exploration of methodological issues. [PDF]

, 2015
Background. Body composition is important as a marker of both current and future health. Bioelectrical impedance (BIA) is a simple and accurate method for estimating body composition, but requires population-specific calibration equations. Objectives. (1)

Overview of bioelectrical impedance analyzers [PDF]

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1996
Six commercial bioelectrical impedance analyzers were evaluated to determine their accuracy as impedance meters, their sensitivity to contact impedance, and other operating parameters such as maximum current amplitude and test wave-form. Over a range of impedances that simulate human body impedance, analyzer errors varied from < 1% to nearly 20 ...

Assessment of volume depletion in children with malaria [PDF]

, 2004
Background The degree of volume depletion in severe malaria is currently unknown, although knowledge of fluid compartment volumes can guide therapy. To assist management of severely ill children, and to test the hypothesis that volume changes in fluid ...

Estimation of body composition and water data depends on the bioelectrical impedance device

Journal of Electrical Bioimpedance, 2018
Overweight, obese and chronic kidney disease patients have an altered and negative body composition being its assessment important. Bioelectrical impedance analysis is an easy-to-operate and low-cost method for this purpose.

Confirmation of the reference impedance ratios used for assessment of breast cancer-related lymphedema by bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Breast cancer-related lymphedema in the arm is commonly detected by bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy as an increased inter-arm impedance ratio due to the presence of excess lymph in the at-risk arm relative to that of the unaffected arm ...
