Evaluation of different bioimpedance methods for assessing body composition in Asian non-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients

Evaluation of different bioimpedance methods for assessing body composition in Asian non-dialysis chronic kidney disease patients

Background : Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with fluid retention, which increases total body water (TBW) and leads to changes in intracellular water (ICW) and extracellular water (ECW). This complicates accurate assessments of body composition. Analysis of bioelectrical impedance may im...
