Novel equations for bioimpedance spectroscopy to calculate body fluid volume based on the agreement between body weight and extracellular water change before and after hemodialysis as a guide

Abstract Background MLT-550N is a device to measure the body fluid volume based on bioimpedance spectroscopy. When extracellular water (ECW) or total body water (TBW) is measured with MLT-550N before and after hemodialysis, the change in ECW (ΔECW) or TBW (ΔTBW) is markedly larger than the change in...
