The Healthcare segment sells digital blood pressure monitors, digital thermometers, body composition monitors, pedometers, biological information monitors, and nebulizers.
Other options include high-tech body composition monitors; a dual energy X-ray absorptiometry test (DEXA) or bone scan; a bioelectrical impedance test, which uses an electrical current to take measurements; a Bod Pod, a chamber that uses an air displacement technique; and hydrostatic weighing basically an underwater scale.
Body composition measurement was carried out using a body composition monitor (Fresenius Medical Care, Bad Homburg (vor der Höhe), Germany).
Body composition monitoring (BCM) is currently used mainly for assessing overhydratation in hemodialysis patients, but it also offers the possibility of evaluating nutrition status.
To evaluate whether body composition monitor (BCM) could be a practical instrument for nephrologists to assess nutritional status in patients on hemodialysis (HD) and whether it is more effective in identifying patients at highest risk of developing protein-energy wasting (PEW) alone or in combination with other tools currently used for that purpose.
Tanita just announced that they've teamed up with Garmin to create a wireless body composition monitor to wirelessly link all kinds of fitness information to your PC or even a Garmin FR60 Fitness Watch.
The BC-1000 Body Composition monitor is a platform that you step on to, and then it will measure your muscle mass, overall physique rating, daily caloric intake, metabolic age rating, bone mass, and visceral fat levels.
Curious about the muscle mass of your right leg? Hop on Tanita Corporation of America's new BC-558 Ironman Body Composition Monitor, which measures segmental body fat percentages and muscle mass.
The BC551 Tanita Innerscan Body Composition Monitor will tell you everything you wanted to know about your body and more, including visceral fat, muscle mass, daily caloric intake and metabolic age.
We used a bio-impedance spectroscopy device, the Body Composition Monitor (BCM) to assess volume status in a cross-sectional cohort of prevalent PD patients in different European countries.
The Body Composition Monitor (BCM, Fresenius Medical Care, Germany) is a bio-impedance spectroscopy device for clinical use, validated by isotope dilution methods [18], and reference body composition methods [19], and has been used in hemodialysis (HD) [20], [21], [22], [23] and PD [24].
