The objective of the present study was to investigate whether InBody 2.0 might be useful in measuring the dry weight of chronic hemodialysis (HD) patients. Thirty-five HD patients (22 males and 13 females; mean age 62.6±14.0 years; mean HD duration 101.0±118.06 months) were examined. Multifrequency bioelectric impedance analysis was used to estimate the ratio of extracellular water (ECW) to total body water (TBW). The body resistance was measured at frequencies ranging from 1 kHz to 1 MHz. The impedance index …
