Changes in Bioimpedance and Body Composition Parameters Depending on Measurement Conditions

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Recently obesity has become a worldwide problem [1]. With obesity there are connected comorbidities such as: diabetes mellitus, high blood pressure, stroke etc. To indicate the degree of obesity (or slimness) lot of examiners use BMI (body mass index) [2, 3]. BMI is a calculated parameter that uses patient?s height and weight. Therefore two persons having the same height and weight can have the same BMI although their body composition can be diametrically different. The focus on BMI only can lead to biases in classification if no other information is obtained [4]. Thus, a method allowing measurement of more informative quantities is necessary in order to evaluace the amount of body fat more objectively and precisely. Obesity does not refer to excessivebody weight but it refers to the condition in which the individual has an excessive amount of body fat.
