Bioelectrical 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 کاملCorrelation between Hyponatremia and High Risk Clinical and Echocardiographic Features in Patients with Acute Heat Failure
Background and purpose: Heart failure (HF) is characterized by decreased ability of the heart to provide sufficient blood flow or fill with the blood. Hyponatremia is the most commonly seen electrolyte abnormality in patients with heart failure that is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between hyponatremia and high risk clinic...
متن کاملAcute heart failure as "acute endothelitis"--Interaction of fluid overload and endothelial dysfunction.
Acute heart failure (AHF) is defined as a change in heart failure (HF) symptoms (i.e. dyspnoea, abdominal bloating, and fatigue) and signs (i.e. pulmonary crackles, jugular vein distension, and peripheral oedema) resulting in a need for urgent therapy. Symptoms and signs of HF are due to elevated left and right ventricular filling pressures with or without low cardiac output [1]. Heart failure ...
متن کاملChest ultrasound and hidden lung congestion in peritoneal dialysis patients.
BACKGROUND Chest ultrasound (US) is a non-invasive well-validated technique for estimating extravascular lung water (LW) in patients with heart diseases and in end-stage renal disease. We systematically applied this technique to the whole peritoneal dialysis (PD) population of five dialysis units. METHODS We studied the cross-sectional association between LW, echocardiographic parameters, cli...
متن کاملBioelectric impedance measurement for fluid status assessment.
BACKGROUND Adequacy of body fluid volume improves short- and long-term outcomes inpatients with heart and kidney disorders. Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) has the potential to be used as a routine method at the bedside for assessment and management of body fluids. METHODS Impedance (Z vector) is a combination of resistance, R (function of intra- and extracellular fluid volume)...
