Comparing bioelectrical impedance values in assessing early upper limb lymphedema after breast cancer surgery.
AIM The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate resistance (R) and phase angle (Pa) determined by single-frequency whole-body bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), as predictors for the early onset of edema of the upper limb in patients undergoing surgical treatment for breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Whole-body BIA was performed before surgery, as well as at two days, at one...
متن کاملModeling upper and lower limb muscle volume by bioelectrical impedance analysis.
Most studies employing bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) for estimating appendicular skeletal muscle mass using descriptive BIA models rely on statistical rather than biophysical principles. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the feasibility of estimating arm and leg muscle volume (MV) based on multiple bioimpedance measurements and using a recently proposed mathematical model an...

متن کاملValidity of estimating limb muscle volume by bioelectrical impedance.
The present study aimed to investigate the validity of estimating muscle volume by bioelectrical impedance analysis. Bioelectrical impedance and series cross-sectional images of the forearm, upper arm, lower leg, and thigh on the right side were determined in 22 healthy young adult men using a specially designed bioelectrical impedance acquisition system and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) met...
متن کاملAcupuncture in the Treatment of Upper-Limb Lymphedema
BACKGROUND Current treatments for lymphedema after breast cancer treatment are expensive and require ongoing intervention. Clinical experience and our preliminary published results suggest that acupuncture is safe and potentially useful. This study evaluates the safety and potential efficacy of acupuncture on upper-limb circumference in women with lymphedema. METHODS Women with a clinical dia...
