The Theory and Fundamentals of Bioimpedance Analysis in Clinical Status Monitoring and Diagnosis of Diseases

摘要: Bioimpedance analysis is a noninvasive, low cost and commonly used approach for body composition measurements assessment of clinical condition. There are variety methods applied interpretation measured bioimpedance data wide range utilizations in estimation evaluation status. This paper reviews the main concepts measurement techniques including frequency based, allocation vector real time systems. Commonly prediction equations influence anthropometric measurements, gender, ethnic groups, postures, protocols electrode artifacts estimated values also discussed. In addition, this contributes to deliberations abnormal loss lean mass unbalanced shift fluids summary diagnostic usage different kinds conditions such as cardiac, pulmonary, renal, neural infection diseases.
