Association of electrical bioimpedance vectors with the nutritional classification of vulnerable multiethnic children.

Background & Aims: Monitoring growth and body composition in childhood is vital for early detection of health and nutrition problems during child development. The bioelectrical impedance vector analysis (BIVA) revealed its effectiveness as an indicator of nutritional status. This study aimed to measure the bioimpedance vectors of a sample of multiethnic children and evaluate the utility of BIVA for the classification of the nutritional status in a group of children with greater vulnerability, including in the presence of obesity.
