Bioimpedance vector analysis and conventional bioimpedance to assess body composition in older adults with dementia [PDF]
Although dementia and nutritional status have been shown to be strongly associated, differences in body composition (BC) among older people with dementia have not yet been firmly established. The aim of this study was to assess BC through conventional and vector bioimpedance analysis (BIA and BIVA, respectively) in a sample of institutionalized older ...

Elephantiasis and Maintenance of Results Following Intensive Treatment [PDF]
Lymphoedema is a chronic clinical condition with no cure. However, novel therapy concepts developed in recent years aim to bring the affected limb within or close to the limits of normality. Elephantiasis is the most advanced stage of this condition, but

Assessment of preoperative fluid depletion using bioimpedance analysis [PDF]
Fluid depletion during the perioperative period is associated with poorer outcome. Non-invasive measurement of total body water by bioimpedance may enable preoperative fluid depletion and its influence on perioperative outcome to be assessed.Weight and foot bioimpedance were recorded under standardized conditions in patients undergoing bowel ...

Bioimpedance analysis in patients with chronic kidney disease
In recent years the use of bioimpedance analysis (BIA) for assessment of fluid status as well as body composition as a mean to assess nutritional status in CKD has increased. The interest in the method is due to the associations between fluid overload and cardiovascular disease, and between fluid overload and malnutrition, both of which contribute to ...
