Utilidad de la tomografía de impedancia eléctrica para la programación del ventilador mecánico en paciente crítico pediátrico, una alternativa dinámica y no invasiva: revisión de dos casos clínicos

La tomografía por impedancia eléctrica (TIE) es una modalidad de monitorización funcional respiratoria por imagen, no invasiva y libre de radiación, que permite visualizar en tiempo real la ventilación pulmonar regional y global en pacientes adultos y pediátricos conectados a Ventilación Mecánica...

Correlación del Ángulo de Fase con las Masas Muscular y Grasa en una Población Caucásica Sana de Amplio Rango de Edad

Int. j. morphol; 42 (4), 2024
El análisis de impedancia bioeléctrica (BIA) es un método relativamente económico, rápido y no invasivo para la determinación de la composición corporal. El ángulo de fase (PhA) es un indicador de la salud celular y de la integridad de la membrana y parece estar relacionado con la capacidad físi...

Body Composition Classification with Electrical Bioimpedance in Chilean Military by Sex

Int. j. morphol; 42 (4), 2024
SUMMARY: Military readiness relies heavily on the physical fitness and operational capability of its personnel. This study aims to enhance the effectiveness of body composition assessment and classification protocols within the military context. A comprehensive evaluation of 4370 active-duty Chilean mili...

Body Typology of Lebanese Adults: Initial Cluster Cross-Selection Study

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: This study aims to investigate body typologies based on a combination of basic anthropo-morphological characteristics and body composition measured by multichannel bioimpedance in a sample from the adult population of Lebanon. A total of 302 subjects (173 males and 129 females) without acute or ...

Resting Energy Expenditure, comparison of predictive formulas with bioimpedance: Peruvian population

Arch. latinoam. nutr; 74 (2), 2024
Introduction: In areas with limited access to healthcare systems, Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) estimation is performed using predictive equations to calculate an individual’s caloric requirement. One problem is that these equations were validated in populations with different characteristics from t...

Ángulo de fase en pacientes diabéticos mellitus tipo 1 y pacientes sin diabetes mellitus tipo 1: estudio transversal
Phase angle in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and patients without type 1 diabetes mellitus: cross-sectional study

Cambios rev. méd; 23 (1), 2024
INTRODUCCIÓN: La bioimpedancia eléctrica, fundamentada en la resistencia de los tejidos biológicos a las corrientes eléctricas, ha emergido como una herramienta clave en la evaluación de la salud metabólica y nutricional en niños y adolescentes.

Different Body Partialization Procedures Considering Maximum Strength and Explosiveness: Factorial Analysis Approach

Int. j. morphol; 42 (2), 2024
SUMMARY: The aim of this study was to determine the sensitivity of different methods of partialization, in terms of different body component indices in relation to indicators of strength and explosiveness. The research involved 187 subjects who were divided into two groups based on sex. This research con...

Standing-Long-Jump Test Application in Identifying Female Adolescents at Risk of Sarcopenic Obesity

Int. j. morphol; 42 (2), 2024
SUMMARY: The identification of children and adolescents who are at risk of sarcopenic obesity development often requires specialized equipment and expensive test procedures. Therefore, the establishment of cheaper and faster methods would be greatly useful, especially if they could be applied in the fiel...
