Application of Levi’s Muscle Index in frailty assessment: comparison of bioimpedance measures among older adults by Kworweinski Lafontant, Kworweinski Lafontant, David H. Fukuda, Estefania Zamarripa, Estefania Zamarripa, Abigail L. Tice, Jethro Raphael M. Suarez, Jethro Raphael M. Suarez, Chitra Banarjee, Chitra Banarjee, Dahee Kim, Jeffrey R. Stout, Jeffrey R. Stout, Joon-Hyuk Park, Joon-Hyuk Park, Rui Xie, Rui Xie, Rui Xie, Ladda Thiamwong, Ladda Thiamwong

“…Despite the emerging clinical utility of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and phase angle (PhA) as a bioimpedance index, little is known about how bioimpedance indices such as Levi’s Muscle Index (LMI), reactance/height (Xc/Height), and resistance/height (R/Height), relate to physical function and frailty.MethodsThis cross-sectional study examined 208 community-dwelling older adults (female, n = 183; age = 74.2 ± 6.9 years; BMI = 30.4 ± 6.4 kg/m2) to compare physical function measures and bioimpedance indices across frailty categories determined by the FRAIL questionnaire. …”
