Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis in obese and overweight children.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
IntroductionBMI is the most commonly used indicator to evaluate overweight and obesity, but it cannot distinguish changes in body composition. Over recent years, it has been demonstrated that bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a more accurate ...

The impact of post operative oedema on clinical recovery and its potential causes

open access: yes, 2007
The postoperative period is characterized by massive shifts of fluid between body compartments and accumulation of fluid in the extracellular space, which may manifest clinically as central and or peripheral oedema.

Development of a Segmental Bioelectrical Impedance Spectroscopy Device for Body Composition Measurement

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Whole-body bioelectrical impedance analysis for measuring body composition has been well-explored but may not be sensitive enough to changes in the trunk compared to changes in the limbs. Measuring individual body segments can address this issue.

Influence of body position on bioelectrical impedance analysis

open access: yesCurrent Directions in Biomedical Engineering
Understanding how body position changes affect bioimpedance is essential for improving wearable technology. This study assessed the influence of posture and timerelated changes on whole-body bioimpedance in 12 volunteers, who maintained sitting, standing

Nutritional assessment in patients with cirrhosis

open access: yesArquivos de Gastroenterologia, 2012
CONTEXT: Malnutrition in cirrhotic patients with end-stage disease is common, and the degree of nutritional debilitation can play an important role in the pathogenesis of complications and cause a negative impact on prognosis.
