Abstract

Vücut kompozisyonun değerlendirilmesi ve izlenmesi sağlık
açısından önemlidir. Gelecekte vücut kompozisyonunu ölçen ve takip eden
cihazların daha yaygın kullanılacağına inanılmaktadır.  Bu çalışmanın amacı bant olarak tasarlanan
giyilebilir biyoelektrik empedans ölçüm cihazının, güvenilirliğini ve
geçerliliğini araştırmak amacıyla laboratuvar tipi biyoelektrik empedans cihazı
ile karşılaştırmaktır. Bu çalışma
tekrarlanan ölçümlerden oluşan bir laboratuvar çalışmasıdır.  Çalışmaya 199 erkek, 123 kadın toplamda 322
sağlıklı kişi katılmıştır. Katılımcıların vücut kompozisyonları laboratuvar
tipi biyoelektrik empedans cihazı ile ölçülerek kaydedildi. Daha sonra
katılımcıların vücut kompozisyonları giyilebilir biyoelektrik empedans cihazı
ile üç kez ölçülmüş ve veriler kaydedilmiştir. Hem laboratuvar tipi cihaz hem de giyilebilir ölçüm cihazı ile
yapılan ölçümlerin sonuçları birbiriyle çok yüksek derecede korelasyon
göstermiştir. Erkeklerde, kadınlarda ve tüm grupta iki cihazın yağ kütle
ölçümleri arasında anlamlı fark bulunmamıştır. Kas kütlesi verileri
değerlendirildiğinde, erkeklerde ve tüm grupta iki cihazın ölçümleri arasında
anlamlı bir fark bulunmazken, kadınlarda anlamlı bir fark görülmüştür (p <0,001). Giyilebilir ölçüm cihazı, laboratuvar
tipi biyoelektrik empedans cihazı ile karşılaştırıldığında, yağ kütlesi
ölçümleri geçerli sonuçlar vermiştir. Kas kütlesi ölçümlerinde ise, sadece
kadınların ölçümleri arasında bir farklılık bulunmuştur. Giyilebilir
biyoelektrik empedans ölçüm cihazları güvenilirliği değerlendirildiğinde,
cihazın güvenilir sonuçlar verdiği görülmüştür. Bu nedenle, cihazın vücut
kompozisyonunu ölçme ve takip etme açısından faydalı olacağı sonucuna
varılmıştır.

VALIDITY AND RELIABILITY OF THE WEARABLE BIOELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE MEASURING DEVICE

Abstract

Assessing and monitoring body composition is important for
health. It is believed that in the future, wearable devices measuring the body
composition, will be more common. The purpose of this study is to compare a
wearable bioelectrical impedance measuring device, designed as a band, with a
laboratory type of bioelectrical impedance device in order to investigate its
reliability and validity. A total of 322 healthy people, 199 men, and 123 women
participated in the study.  The
participants’ body compositions were measured with the laboratory type of
bioelectrical impedance device and recorded. Following these measurements,
participants’ body compositions were measured three times with the wearable
bioelectrical impedance measuring device and data were recorded. The results of the measurements by
both the laboratory type device and the wearable measuring device demonstrated
a very high degree of correlations with each other. There were no significant
differences between two devices’ fat mass measurements in men, in women and in
the whole group. When muscle mass data were evaluated, there were no significant
differences between two devices’ measurements in men and in the whole group,
but there was a significant difference in women (p < .001). When wearable
measuring device was compared with laboratory type of bioelectrical impedance
device, fat mass measurement results were valid. However, in muscle mass
measurements, there was a difference in women. When the wearable bioelectrical
impedance measuring device’s reliability was evaluated, it was demonstrated
that the device yielded valid results. Therefore, it is concluded that the
device will be useful for self-monitoring the body composition.
