A comparison of bioelectrical impedance analysis and air displacement plethysmography to assess body composition in children

Frontiers in Public Health, 2023
BackgroundAccurate assessment of body composition (BC) is important to investigate the development of childhood obesity. A bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) device is portable and inexpensive compared with air displacement plethysmography (ADP) for ...

A Cuffless Blood Pressure Measurement Based on the Impedance Plethysmography Technique

Sensors, 2017
In the last decade, cuffless blood pressure measurement technology has been widely studied because it could be applied to a wearable apparatus. Electrocardiography (ECG), photo-plethysmography (PPG), and phonocardiography are always used to detect the ...

Electrical impedance plethysmography versus tonometry to measure the pulse wave velocity in peripheral arteries in young healthy volunteers: a pilot study

Journal of Electrical Bioimpedance, 2021
The leading cause of health loss and deaths worldwide are cardiovascular diseases. A predictor of cardiovascular diseases and events is the arterial stiffness. The pulse wave velocity (PWV) can be used to estimate arterial stiffness non-invasively.

Evaluation of bioelectrical impedance analysis in measuring body fat in 6-to-12-year-old boys compared with air displacement plethysmography

British Journal of Nutrition, 2022
Air displacement plethysmography (ADP) has been considered as the ‘standard’ method to determine body fat in children due to superior validity and reliability compared with bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA).
