BIA gives also adequate results in patients with a BMI <16 and >35?
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The statement is false because the Body Mass Index (BMI) ranges mentioned, specifically a BMI 35, indicate extreme levels of underweight and obesity respectively. BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) is a method used to estimate body composition, including body fat percentage, by measuring the resistance to electrical currents in the body. However, extreme BMI values can affect the accuracy of BIA results, making them less reliable in these cases. Therefore, BIA may not give adequate results in patients with a BMI 35.
