Identifying critically ill patients with low muscle mass: Agreement between bioelectrical impedance analysis and computed tomography

Low muscle mass and -quality on ICU admission, as assessed by muscle area and -density on CT-scanning at lumbar level 3 (L3), are associated with increased mortality. However, CT-scan analysis is not feasible for standard care. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) assesses body composition by inco...
