The first generation Body Water Analyzer'S10', has been recognized in the medical field, such as kidney medicine, cardiology, and intensive care unit (ICU) as a device that accurately measures total body water.
Due to the features of S10 where it enables free movement and the capability to measure lying down patients, it is useful in measuring and treating patients by monitoring and evaluating their nutritional status such as hydration status, muscle mass monitoring, and severity evaluation.
What is measured?
BODY WATER COMPOSITION HISTORY
Body Water Composition History monitors changes, providing valuable data to see how a patient is responding to a program and if modifications need to be made to improve their health.
WHOLE BODY PHASE ANGLE
Phase angle is a good indicator of cellular integrity. The InBody S10 provides whole body phase angle and segmental phase angle analysis at 50 kHz. The higher the phase angle, the healthier cellular integrity is. Phase angle values can be used to ensure a patient is receiving the appropriate vitamin and mineral intake.
NOTES FOR DIALYSIS PATIENTS
Segmental ECW/TBW reveals body water distribution in each individual body segment. This allows for monitoring of trends and detection of unusual shifts in fluid distribution that result from injury, aging, obesity and other health factors.
