Study of Different Body Parameters for Health Monitoring

Abstract

The aim of this study is to know the various parameters of the body, their range and their importance in analyzing the different illness present in the body. The body parameters vary according to male, female, height, weight and lifestyle. Different methods are proposed by researchers for studying the body parameters. The electrical bio-impedance method is the most used method for the evaluation of body parameters since it is noninvasive, easy to use, inexpensive and safe on the human body. The electrical bio-impedance method is further used in two ways: single-frequency and multi-frequency bio-impedance analysis-based instruments. In this paper, both single-frequency and multi-frequency bio-impedance analysis-based instruments applications used for the measurement of different body parameters are discussed in detail. Different body parameter such as fat mass, water component, electrical body parameters are explained in detail here and their range for healthy and unhealthy persons are also summarized here. This paper presents the detail illustration of important body parts.
