mBCA 525 – precision meets mobility

- The bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) counts as one of the most current topics in clinical nutrition. Through precise and reliable measurements of a body’s composition, the seca mBCA devices can be used in various clinical sectors. Patients in oncology, nephrology, diabetology and cardiology, in particular, can profit from the device. Extracellular water retentions that result from heart insufficiency can be recognized early on and dialysis therapies can be effectively monitored.

While sports medicine and nutrition therapy patients are usually mobile and can easily use the fixed seca mBCA 514 unit, the situation is quite different for stationary patients who are bedridden or whose mobility is heavily restricted.

These patients, too, can profit from the use of an mBCA device. The seca mBCA 525 was developed especially for this patient group. Mobility, precision and reliability, as well as ease-of-use are the device’s main strengths. For this reason, all output parameters have been validated according to gold standard, making them applicable without limitations for medical use. The mobile seca mBCA 525 does not take second place to the seca mBCA 514. In fact, it is just as important. To guarantee the highest level of mobility and autonomy, the device shows its value through its lightweight design and long battery life. The device is simple and user-friendly, allowing for timely and efficient work. With the help of 8-electrodes and a measuring mat, it can record precise data on the patient’s body composition in only 30 seconds. The data is instantly available and can be interpreted graphically if need be. To facilitate its mobile application, the monitor does not require a cable connection, but can transmit data wirelessly. Furthermore, the touch screen display can be used even with gloves or underneath a protective cover. The seca mBCA 525’s high mobility and precision not only offer a realistic application for clinical everyday life, but it can also be used in various situations during ambulant patient-center care. For home visits, for example, the device can be used as a quick and convenient screening method. With an overall capacity of about 100,000 individual measurements, large patient groups or ongoing therapy courses can be recorded.

All in all, the seca mBCA 525 not only offers its users many advantages, but the device’s utility also caters to the patient’s best interests. In particular, patients with advanced illnesses will profit strongly from the quick and gentle measuring technique. Generating data with the seca mBCA 525 facilitates diagnoses and helps to initiate and control therapy methods from the early stages on.  As a result, the patient will be offered the best therapy possible for recovery.
