A Non-Invasive Approach to Predict Risk In Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF) Using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis
The purpose of this study was to validate a single BIA for predicting the risk in DHF in dengue patients in the Hospital Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (HUKM). The BIA technique based on the passing of low-amplitude electrical current less than 1 mA (500 to 800!A) with frequency 50kHz. During...

| Summary: | The purpose of this study was to validate a
single BIA for predicting the risk in DHF in dengue
patients in the Hospital Universiti Kebangsaan
Malaysia (HUKM). The BIA technique based on the
passing of low-amplitude electrical current less than 1
mA (500 to 800!A) with frequency 50kHz. During
hospitalization, 210 patients who are 119 males and
91 females serologically confirmed DF and DHF
patients were tested using single BIA. By using
multiple regression analysis, race, reactance,
complication, headache and the day of fever were
found independent determinants of predicting the
risk. Hence, this novel approach of BIA technique
can provide rapid, non-invasive, and promising
method for classifying and evaluating the status of
the DHF patients. |
