Background The utilisation of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) in heart failure can be affected by many factors and its applicability remains controversial. The present study aimed to verify the adequacy of single‐frequency BIA (SF‐BIA) and multifrequency BIA (MF‐BIA) compared to dual‐energy x‐ray absorptiometry (DEXA) for evaluating body composition in outpatients with heart failure. Methods In this cross‐sectional study, 55 patients with stable heart failure and left ventricle ejection fraction≤ 45% were evaluated for fat mass …
