Bioelectrical ImpedanceAnalysisin BodyCompositionMeasurement National Institutes of Health Technology Assessment Conference Statement December 12 14, 1994 Abstract Objective. To provide physicians with a responsible assessment of Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) technology for body Composition measurement. Participants. A non-Federal, nonadvocate, 13-member panel representing the fields of nutrition, pediatrics, surgery, public health, biomedical engineering, epidemiology, and biostatistics. In addition, 20 experts in nutrition, pediatrics, metabolism, biomedical engineering, physiology, and epidemiology presented data to the panel and a confer ence audience of 220. Evidence. The literature was searched through Medline and an extensive bibliography of reference was provided to the panel and the conference audience.
aspects of body composition, and will vary in the same person from time to time as these characteristics change. Almost any change in body size, shape, or composition will have at least a small effect on impedance. Although the current paths are not known from the BIA measure ments, plausible inferences can be made from known body structure.
