- These documents deal with the clinical utility of analyte measurements in the majority of fluid types. (aacc.org)
- They also provide guidance to clinical laboratories on result reporting, interpretation, and analytical variables affecting measurement of body fluids. (aacc.org)
- For example, in a method called dilution, or hydrometry , the person being measured provides body fluid samples in a clinical setting. (withings.com)
Patients1
- However, it is not known if BIA-guided fluid management can improve MHD patients' survival. (biomedcentral.com)
Total2
- The BOD POD test provides results of these two categories expressed as percentages of total body mass. (utah.edu)
- When you hear people say they want to be more toned and lean, what they really want is to build strength in their body while reducing their total amount of body fat. (nationalmemo.com)
Found7
- Chloride is found in many chemicals and other substances in the body. (centrum.com)
- His body, covered with fire ants, was found hanging from a swing set. (wepapers.com)
- It was found that the equilibrium composition of surface liquids depends on the mixing ratio of CH 4 in the local atmosphere. (nasa.gov)
- Three salient themes were found-fluid masculinity, ethnicity brings an edge to boxing, and expressing identity through language. (mdpi.com)
- Carbohydrates are present in the human body largely as fuels, either as simple sugars circulating through the bloodstream or as glycogen, a storage compound found in the liver and the muscles. (rincondelvago.com)
- Creatine is a chemical found naturally in the body. (medlineplus.gov)
- Recommendations for protecting tattoo artists and body piercers from bloodborne pathogens can be found on the NIOSH Body Art web page. (cdc.gov)
Ratio1
- The BOD POD uses Air Displacement Plethysmograph (ADP) to determine your body composition (the ratio of fatty mass to lean mass). (utah.edu)
Surrounds1
- Extracellular fluid (ECF) surrounds all cells in the body. (oncolink.org)
Plethysmography1
- The BOD POD Gold Standard Body Composition Tracking System uses patented Air Displacement Plethysmography for determining percent fat and fat-free mass in adults and children. (utah.edu)
Lean2
- Body composition is divided into two body mass categories (fat mass & lean mass). (utah.edu)
- This lean body mass includes all of our muscles, which are fat-free cells in the body, and lean muscle is just a popular expression. (nationalmemo.com)
