Bioimpedancemetry in Evaluating Nutritional Status of Patients with Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Journal Title: Гастроентерологія - Year 2015, Vol 2, Issue 56
Abstract
The article deals with the study of nutritional status in patients with chronic inflammatory bowel disease (CIBD) using bioimpedancemetry. 40 patients with CIBD were examined. The high prevalence of deviations in the percentage of fat mass in the body (87.5 %) has been detected, with a predominance of nutritional deficiency (65.0 %) associated with a decrease in the body’s adaptive capabilities and severe course of the disease. 70.0 % of patients were characterized by redistribution of water sectors of the body due to increased amount of extracellular fluid and reduced amount of intracellular fluid, which was more significant in patients with increased nutritional status compared to patients with nutritional deficiency. More expressed changes of the component composition of the body were in patients with Crohn’s disease.
