Generation of Prediction Equations to Analyze Body Composition of Obese Adults Based on BIA

July 22, 2019 updated by: Seca GmbH & Co. Kg.

Generation of Prediction Equations to Analyze Body Composition of Obese Adults Based on Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA)

The study was based on the clinical trial BCA-01 (NCT01368640) "Generation of prediction equations to analyze body composition of adults based on Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA)" and implicates an extension of the study collective. Aim of the study is to develop prediction equations for calculating FFM, TBW, ECW and SMM based on the gold standard reference methods ADP, DXA, MRI, D2O and NaBr on the one hand and measurement data of the BIA devices on the other hand.
