Application of multi-frequency bioimpedance analysis to the management of patients with

  • besity and metabolic disorders

Lindsay Plank

Department of Surgery University of Auckland Auckland, New Zealand

  • Reduction in fat mass
  • Maintenance of lean body mass (fat-free mass)
  • Reduction of central fat deposition, esp. visceral fat
  • BMI is uninformative for these aspects of body

composition

  • BMI cut-offs for overweight/obesity are problematic in

non-European populations

  • WC does not identify visceral fat
  • Bioimpedance analysis: a tool for evaluating fat

mass, skeletal muscle mass, visceral fat, their changes with weight loss, and their relationships to cardiometabolic disorders?

Impedance (derived from measured voltage)

Constant alternating current

Bioelectrical impedance devices measure impedance at one

  • r more frequencies

They don’t ‘measure’ water volumes or fat mass. These must be estimated in some way from impedance values

Impedance Constant current

Hand-to-foot Standing

  • r

supine Leg-to-leg Standing (or arm-to-arm)

Basic principle

For a cylindrical conductor full of electrolyte: Impedance Z = ρL/A (ρ = electrolyte resistivity) i.e, Z = ρL2/(AL) and volume of electrolyte = AL

Length x Length Impedance Electrolyte volume = ρ Height x Height Impedance, Z Total fluid volume ∝ (impedance index) Human body is modelled as a single cylinder Conductor length ~ 95% Height

Stahn et al Handbook of Anthropometry 2012

To increase the strength of the relationship between the impedance index and fluid volume: weight, age, sex added as predictors Typically, a gold-standard determination of total body water allows an equation to be developed for predicting this volume from H2/Z, weight, age, sex

Total body fat Fat-free mass Water Mineral

Carbohydrate

Protein

73% of FFM H2/Z, weight, age, sex will predict FFM as measured by UWW, DXA or 4-C model, allowing TBF estimation A large number of equations have been published - they tend to be specific for the populations on which they were developed

ECW ICW Water

RECW CM RICW

Impedance (Z) consists of both resistive (R) and reactive (X, cellular tissue) components Cell and tissue interfaces act like capacitors and their impedance to current flow (termed reactance) is frequency dependent

Stahn et al Handbook of Anthropometry 2012

HF current LF current

Cells ECW ICW

Capacitors present very high impedance to low frequency current – at zero frequency no current through cells and Z0 = RECW (determination of ECW volume) At high frequencies, current penetrates cells – at infinite frequency, Z∞ = parallel combination of RECW and RICW (determination of TBW volume) At intermediate frequencies, measured impedance is a combination of resistance (R) and reactance (X) Reactance causes the current to lag behind the voltage creating a phase shift:

Magnitude (mV, mA) Time Current Voltage

Model-fitting Less population specific

Single Frequency BIA

Most widely used approach since development of the technology in 1979 by RJL Systems. In addition to TBW and FFM estimation, the close relationship between ECW and TBW in health allows ECW estimation. Originally developed for supine measurement, standing leg-to-leg devices have proliferated. Contribution to Z ~50% ~45% ~5%

H2/Z highly correlated for whole body, legs and arms. Leg-to-leg and arm-to-arm measurements have similar predictive ability as whole body. (~50% total mass)

(Addition of age and sex to regression models improved R2 to similar values)

Recommendations for reliable supine whole-body measurements

  • Conditions should be same as those under which the equations
  • r model used were developed
  • Check device calibration regularly
  • Fast (except water) and avoid alcohol, caffeine and exercise for

at least 8 h

  • Empty bladder before measurement
  • Swab skin with alcohol
  • Proximal electrode positioning is critical
  • Avoid excessively warm or cold ambient temperature
  • Arms ~30 deg from trunk; legs ~45 deg separation (limbs

straight); towels/blankets for obese

  • Consistency vital for serial measurements (time of day)
  • Supine for at least 10 min before measurement

(follow manufacturer’s instructions – Quadscan manual suggests 3-4 min)

Summary points

  • Limited data in obese comparing single-frequency

BIA fat mass estimation with reference data

  • As a consequence, almost no development of BIA

equations suitable for obese populations

  • Obesity is a challenge for BIA given the prevalence of

truncal adiposity and variability in hydration

  • Acceptable accuracy achievable in women; limits of

agreement wide

  • DXA as a reference technique also has limitations

  • Volume (ECW, TBW) estimation requires:

resistivities of ECW and ICW body density form factor (accounts for geometrical properties

  • f arms, leg, trunk)
  • Accuracy of estimation dependent on choosing

correct parameters – may differ for different populations (estimated using regression techniques)

  • Same drawbacks as regression-based approaches?

Summary

BIA equations developed for use in the obese are lacking This likely includes manufacturers’ proprietary equations Future work on segmental BIA approaches may improve agreement with DXA (or multi-compartment models) for fat mass Usefulness of visceral fat by BIA is currently questionable Bivariate Vector Analysis may offer useful qualitative information for tracking individuals
