[Body impedance as a biological parameter in clinical research].
The impedance of the thoracic and abdominal organs and the integral body impedance were studied in healthy individuals and in patients with disorders of water-electrolyte metabolism (the edema syndrome, postoperative dehydration). Analysis of the impedance values made it possible to reveal characteristic changes in ascitis, in pleural effusion, and after major surgical interventions on the abdominal organs. The dynamics of these values may serve as an objective criterion of the extent of correction of disorders of water-electrolyte balance during treatment.
