Differences in the Measurement Values of Care-dependent Elderly between Two Models of Body Composition Analyzer

Abstract

[Purpose] To clarify differences in measurement values between two models of body composition analyzer. [Participants and Methods] Body composition components were measured with 2 models, InBodyS10 and InBodyBWA, in 78 (19 males and 59 females) special nursing home residents. The correlation coefficients between the values were calculated, and measurement errors were compared using Bland-Altman analysis. [Results] The intraclass correlation coefficients for all measurement items ranged from 0.90 to 0.97, showing no additive or proportional errors. [Conclusion] No measurement errors were observed between InBodyS10 and InBodyBWA.
