| Abstract | A method for extrapolating the extracellular water (ECW) resistance from wrist–ankle resistance at 50 kHz (R $_{50}$) is proposed in this paper, in order to enable 50 kHz impedancemeters to use the BIS-Hanai equation for determination of ECW. Values of R $_{50}$ and the ECW resistance extrapolated at zero frequency R $_{e}$ were measured in a first group of 57 healthy volunteers, using a Xitron 4200 multifrequency impedancemeter and mean values (b) of the ratio R $_{50}$/R $_{e}$ in men and women were used to determine individual values of R $_{e50}$, the ECW resistance extrapolated from R $_{50}$, which were substituted to R $_{e}$ in the BIS-Hanai equation. For validation, the method was compared against ECW measured with the Xitron (V $_{ex}$) in a second group of 31 healthy volunteers, using values of b of first group. Values of R $_{e50}$ in this second group were found to be not significantly different from corresponding values of R $_{e}$ with p-values of Student test of 0.346 for men and 0.300 for women. ECW volumes (V $_{e50}$) calculated from R $_{e50}$ were also found not significantly different from those of the Xitron with Student paired test p values of 0.277 in men and 0.393 in women. Our method gave a better agreement with V $_{ex}$ than two bioimpedance analysis methods from the literature, especially in women. It was also tested on a 50 kHz single frequency impedancemeter (BodyExplorer, Juwell Medical) on a third group of 21 subjects and gave ECW volumes not significantly from those of the Xitron with p = 0.531 for men and 0.096 for women. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
