Influence of the Body Composition of Neurological (Early) Rehabilitants on Rehabilitation Success

Sex: All

Ages: 18 Years – N/A

Healthy volunteers: No

Enrollment: 57

Sponsor: BDH-Klinik Hessisch Oldendorf

Location: Institute for Neurorehabilitation Research, BDH-Clinic Hessich Oldendorf Hessisch Oldendorf Lower Saxony

Summary

An optimal nutritional supply is associated with better outcome and recovery. For investigating the influence of the nutritional status and body composition on the course of rehabilitation, bioelectrical impedance analyzes (BIA) should be carried out on neurological (early) rehabilitants during the rehabilitation process. Possible disturbances, suitable outcome valuesfor evaluation of the rehabilitation success (depending on the rehabilitation phase) as well as the required frequency of the BIA measurements in rehabilitation should be estimated with the help of this pilot study.
