Abstract

The analysis of body composition is used to evaluation
of health and body function. Bioelectrical impedance
analysis is the most commonly used method for assessing body composition. In recent years changes in body
composition is used to assess the risk of nutritionrelated diseases. Bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA), which is the one of these method provides
information about body composition, hydration status
and disease risk. In this method, the evaluation is performed according to the length and direction of the
vector. Body composition, hydration status and disease
risk are assessed according to changes in vector. In
addition, body composition, hydration status and the
risk of nutrition related diseases is determined with
respect to the increase/decrease in phase angle, also. In
this review BIVA method, which is a current approach,
has been explained.

HASTALIK RİSKİ, BESLENME VE HİDRASYON DURUMUNUN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİNDE GÜNCEL YAKLAŞIM: BİOELEKTRİK İMPEDANS VEKTÖR ANALİZİ

Abstract

Vücut bileşiminin analizi, sağlık ve vücut fonksiyonlarının değerlendirilmesinde kullanılmaktadır. Biyoelektrik
impedans analizi vücut bileşiminin değerlendirilmesinde en sık kullanılan yöntemdir. Son yıllarda vücut bileşimindeki değişiklikler beslenmeyle ilişkili hastalık riskinin değerlendirilmesinde kullanılmaktadır. Bu değerlendirme yöntemlerinden olan bioelektrik impedans vektör
analizi (BİVA) vücut bileşimi, hidrasyon durumu ve hastalık riskiyle ilişkili bilgi vermektedir. BİVA yönteminde
vektörün uzunluğu ve yönüne göre değerlendirme yapılmaktadır. Vektördeki değişimlere göre vücut bileşimi,
hastalık riski ve hidrasyon durumu değerlendirilir. Aynı
şekilde faz açısındaki artış ve azalışlara göre de vücut
bileşimi, hidrasyon durumu ve hastalık riski ve değerlendirilir. Bu derlemede güncel bir yaklaşım olan BİVA
yöntemi anlatılmıştır.
