Part Descriptions
LP190312-1 BIA
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a method for assessing body composition in patients. BIA measures the flow of an electric current through body tissues which can then be used to determine the total body water (TBW), fat mass (FM), fat-free mass (FFM), and fat mass percentage. Many BIA equations are available in the literature for estimating FFM. They varying in terms of the parameters included in multiple regression equations and in their applicability to individuals with different clinical presentations.[Mialich et. al. (2014). IJCN, 2(1), 1-10]

LP35953-6 Body fat percentage
A patient's body fat percentage is the total mass of fat divided by total body mass. A number of methods are available for determining body fat percentage, such as measurement with calipers, hydrostatic weighing, whole-body air displacement plethysmography, or bioelectrical impedance analysis. The percentage of body fat in an individual varies according to sex and age.[PMID 12037649]
