Validation of two portable bioelectrical impedance analyses for the assessment of body composition in school age children
Abstract
Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a convenient and child-friendly method for longitudinal analysis of changes in body composition. However, most validation studies of BIA have been performed on adult Caucasians. The present cross-sectional study investigated the validity of two portable BIA devices, the Inbody 230 (BIA8MF) and the Tanita BC-418 (BIA8SF), in healthy Taiwanese children.Children aged 7-12 years (72 boys and 78 girls) were...
