Application of Levi’s Muscle Index in frailty assessment: comparison of bioimpedance measures among older adults

IntroductionFrailty is prevalent among older adults and is characterized by reductions in physical function and muscle quality. Despite the emerging clinical utility of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and phase angle (PhA) as a bioimpedance index, little is known about how bioimpedance indice...
