Purpose: Phase angle (PA) is objectively determined from resistance and reactance measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)− a quick, noninvasive method. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical application of PA by BIA for nutritional assessment of critically ill patients. Methods: Eighty nine adult patients admitted to a medical intensive care unit (ICU) of a tertiary academic hospital from August 2012 to September 2013 were analyzed. PA values were measured by direct segmental multi-frequency BIA. As traditional …
