diagnostic value of bioelectrical impedance analysis versus body mass index for detection of obesity among students
purpose obesity is a common nutritional problem in both developed and developing countries. the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of overweightness and obesity using both bioelectrical impedance analysis (bia) and body mass index (bmi). methods in this cross-sectional study, 288 healthy college students were selected. socio-economic status questionnaires were completed and subje...
متن کاملBioelectrical impedance analysis revisited.
Although total limb volume measurements are used to track the progress of lymphedema and its treatment, these measurements can be confounded by changes other than fluid excess namely muscle or fat gain. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a technique that specifically quantifies both total body fluid and extracellular fluid in extremities. Whereas BIA has potential as a quick, inexpensive...
متن کاملBioelectrical Impedance versus Body Mass Index for Predicting Body Composition Parameters in Sedentary Job Women
Objective: Nowadays the value of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) in the estimation of body adiposity both on a clinical basis in the individual and epidemiologically in large populations is of great interest. The current study determine accuracy of BIA compared with body mass index (BMI) measurement for estimating body composition in a group of normal weight employee women with a sedenta...
متن کاملOn the potential of ultrasound elastography for pressure ulcer early detection.
PURPOSE Pressure ulcers are areas of soft tissue breakdown induced by a sustained mechanical stress that damages the skin and underlying tissues. They represent a considerable burden to the society in terms of health care and cost. Yet, techniques for prevention and detection of pressure ulcers still remain very limited. In this article, the authors investigated the potential of ultrasound elas...
متن کاملPressure ulcer staging revisited: superficial skin changes & Deep Pressure Ulcer Framework©.
Deficiencies in the current pressure ulcer classification system create the impetus for the current discourse on the clinical, legal, and economic implications of staging and considering shifting the paradigm in pressure ulcer description and assessment.
