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

Completed
Conditions
Bioelectrical Impedance Measurement of Healthy Adults
Registration Number
NCT03779932
Lead Sponsor
Seca GmbH & Co. Kg.
Brief Summary

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.
