In recent years, many efforts have been made to promote a healthcare paradigm shift from the traditional reactive hospital-centered healthcare approach towards a proactive, patient-oriented, and self-managed approach that could improve service quality and help reduce costs while contributing to sustainability. Managing and caring for patients with chronic diseases accounts over 75% of healthcare costs...
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is used to calculate the body fat percentage of a human by applying a small amount of alternating current through a human body and measuring the impedance. As the electrode size of a BIA device becomes small, the measurement error of impedance becomes large due to the contact resistance between the electrode and human skin. Most commercial BIA devices, therefore,...
Quantification of internal body composition such as fat mass and body fluid volume recently relies on expensive and complex modalities. The aim of this study is to validate the ability of a multiple frequency bioimpedance analyzer (MFBIA) to estimate the change of internal fat and fluid content in a phantom model. Biological phantom was structured using fresh cucumbers filled with mixture of different...
