Bioelectrical impedance analysis in ICU patients [PDF]

Critical Care, 2009
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a widely used method for calculating body compartments in healthy subjects and chronically ill patients. The resistance (R) – which is correlated with total body water – and the reactance (Xc) – depending on the capacitance of cell membranes – are measured by BIA.
