2 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living PLEASE NOTE The content of this slide deck is for informational purposes only. BIA technology is not intended to prevent, cure, diagnose, or treat any particular disease state. BIA technology does not replace the educated judgment of a licensed health care professional.

3 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living The US spends more on healthcare per capita ($8668) and more on healthcare as a percentage of GDP (17.2%) than any other nation. From 2011 data

4 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Meta-analysis of almost 15,000 patients in multidisciplinary hospital and geriatric settings 145 cited references

5 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Evidence-based medicine requires evidence

6 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Scale Weight “Yes – I have weight…” Putting a patient on the scale only to confirm a total weight is like… drawing a blood sample only to confirm that the patient has blood

7 Which components are changing - fat, lean dry mass, fat free mass, intracellular water, extracellular water…? Measuring and Managing Healthy Living

8 Skin Fold Caliper Typically 3-7 sites on the body Variable inter-rater reliability Calipers only measure subcutaneous fat No TBW, ICE, ECW, or Phase Angle data Staff training & time-intensive Many patients report finding the procedure socially uncomfortable Courtesy Defender Body Fat Calipers

9 Courtesy Seattle pacific University Photo Courtesy ADP Technology Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Water and/or Air Displacement Lung air volume can compromise the accuracy of data Many patients report being fearful of immersion, claustrophobic, or being too self-conscious to be tested No TBW, ICW, ECW No Phase Angle data.

10 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry Two radiation sources scan the body, some of which is absorbed by the bone & soft tissue. Most commonly used to determine bone mineral/skeletal health, and also measures fat and muscle. Height must be under 6’6” Weight must be under 350 pounds. There is still no TBW, ICW, ECW or Phase Angle data.

11 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis

12 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living “Biological material is conductive and constantly changing. BIA can measure the electrical conductive properties of living things, and illustrate their changes over time.” - Rudolph J. Liedtke

13 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living In 1981, the US Navy ordered 4 BIA devices to be customized by RJL Systems, for use in the extreme conditions on Mt. McKinley. Studying naval soldiers in high altitude, correlating body composition fluids, correlating their results with blood and urine analysis.

14 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Limitations of other BIA methods (standing & hand-held) Standing body composition devices are less accurate than RJL BIA, due to: central venous pressure unstabilized callouses on hands & feet temperature variables on palms & feet moisture variations on palms & feet

15 Limitations of other BIA methods Signal path differences Handheld models: hands, arms, upper chest Standing models: heels, legs, pelvis Measuring and Managing Healthy Living

16 Limitations of other BIA methods: Hand-held Hand Held Skin temperature dropping just 8.4’C causes an 8% error in Reactance, and an increase in Impedance (Z), due to changes in cutaneous blood flow and muscle. Gudivaka, 1996

17 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Limitations of other BIA methods: Standing Foot to Foot Correlation, R =.71, vs. Hand to Foot Correlation, R=.96 Jebb, 2000

18 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Limitations of other BIA methods: Consumer-grade devices Consumer grade BIA devices have been found to be even less accurate than skin fold thickness methods Peterson, 2011

19 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Quantum BIA Cleared by the FDA as a Class II Medical Device, to assess body composition & fluid distribution 510 (K) Clearance for BC Software (available on MAC, PC, iPad) For use on healthy humans, ages 3-94 years.

21 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Proper BIA Protocol

22 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Proper BIA protocol Remove sock, stocking, jewelry, and any other metal objects from the electrode sites and the side of the body being tested. Remove cellphone or other electronic device from body Supine position on a flat surface Arms out 30’ from waist, and palms down

23 Proper BIA protocol Clean the 4 electrode sites with alcohol pad, and allow to dry (about 30 seconds) Measuring and Managing Healthy Living

36 Contribution of body composition to nutritional assessment at hospital admission in 995 patients: a controlled population study U. Kyle, A. Morabia, et al, BJN (2001), 86, 725-731, Degree of malnutrition was significantly underestimated by BMI and serum albumin BIA-FFM identified patients with low FFM, and low or high Fat DXA-BIA correlate r=0.986 FFM FFM should therefore be included in optimal objective nutritional assessment Measuring and Managing Healthy Living

44 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Phase Angle Humans typically range between 3-9

45 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Can phase angle determined by BIA assess nutritional risk? A comparison between healthy and hospitalized subjects U. Kyle, E. Soundar, et. al. Clin Nutr (2012), 875-881. Low PA associated with low serum albumin and moderate-to-severe risk by NRS2000 and SGA. PA is a useful screening tool at hospital admission without constraints of measuring body weight or body height

46 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Phase Angle See the specified reference range on each individual report, based upon unique client factors Many practitioners report making a referral for further assessment and diagnosis for Phase Angle under 4 Phase angle is calculated by finding the ratio of reactance divided by resistance, and taking the arctangent of that ratio. Phase angle is normally expressed in degrees Increased hydration is usually associated with higher phase angle Practitioners typically say “higher is better”

47 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Phase Angle PA is derived directly from the relation between reactance and resistance, and therefore is an indicator of water distribution Phase angle reflects the relative contributions of fluid (resistance) and cellular membranes (capacitance) of the human body. By definition, phase angle is positively associated with capacitance and negatively associated with resistance Phase Angle sometimes shows a temporary drop during fat loss Most useful when analyzed and interpreted as a trend.

48 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Many practitioners tell us they monitor for change… Reactance Phase Angle Capacitance Fat Free Mass Lean Dry Mass Intracellular Water Resistance Impedance Fat Extracellular Water

49 Measuring and Managing Healthy Living Practitioners specifically target FAT loss to help achieve… Cardiovascular risk Blood sugar & insulin Total cholesterol Blood pressure LDL cholesterol Triglycerides Medication reduction/elimination when possible Gynecological conditions Symptoms of arthritis Cardiovascular function Improved quality of life Healthy sexual function HDL cholesterol Better fitness & lifestyle compliance Hormone balance
