Trial summary

With, one in three Americans now having a body mass index (BMI) greater than 30, and the fastest growing segment of the population having a BMI greater than 40, it is paramount to conduct validation of approaches to measure body composition. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Validation of the InBody 770® for the Assessment of Body Composition

With, one in three Americans now having a body mass index (BMI) greater than 30, and the fastest growing segment of the population having a BMI greater than 40, it is paramount to conduct validation of approaches to measure body composition. Currently the dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (iDXA) is the gold standard for measuring the body composition. But it is often difficult to perform since it is limited to specific height, weight and BMI's. InBody is a tool which uses bio electric impedance to measure the body composition. This study will compare both approaches. Validation is necessary as it is clinically quite pertinent to accurately assess a patients' body fat percentage, fat free mass, and total body water and changes that are occurring with nutritional support.

Read the detailed description

This study will use a stratified design. Eligible participants will be categorized with BMI category to receive InBody followed by iDXA. A total of 176 participants will be placed in 1 of 4 arms (n = 44 per arm) based on their BMI: 1) 18.5-24.9; 2) 25-29.9; 3) 30-34.9; and 4) ≥ 35. Within these arms, the 44 participants will participate in an InBody 770® body composition measure as well as an iDXA body composition measure.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Validation Study, run by Mayo Clinic at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Jun 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Body Composition Measures (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 1 Jun 2020.
