Summary
The purpose of this study is to validate and standardize bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA, Maltron BioScan touch i8) for estimating body composition in hospitalized elderly patients with pneumonia. Body composition assessments with BIA and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA,
Detailed description
Holigic Discovery) was performed on 36 non-fasting patients over 65 years of age. 29 patients had BIA performed within 24 hours after hospital admission and at the date of discharge. 17 patients had BIA performed in fasted state and one hour after an intake of 300 ml glucose solution.
