The seca mBCA 514 is a medical Body Composition Analyze that is ideally adapted to the working conditions in hospitals and medical practices.

The seca mBCA breaks down weight into several compartments which are highly relevant in medical care, namely, fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM), total body water (TBW), extracellular water (ECW), skeletal muscle mass (SMM) and lean soft tissue (LST). The seca mBCA distinguishes TBW from ECW and measures SMM across LST.

Five decisive advantages for your medical practice:

• Research grade accuracy and precision.
• Comprehensive assessment of the metabolic health and wellness status of patients.
• Brief examination – less than 20 seconds.
• Risk Stratification: Metabolic disorders, Heart and Cardiovascular disease.
• Precise monitoring of physiologic responses and compliance to therapy.

And it sets even more standards:

• More Frequencies
• High Reproducibility of Results
• Measures from seven segments
• Low-intensity current

Additional features:

• The only bioimpedance device which has validated all of its output parameters to the individual most precise reference method "Gold Standard" in one multicenter coherent study design.
• Rapid assessment of vital body composition parameters, e.g., fat mass, visceral adipose tissue, skeletal muscle mass and body water with medical precision.
• Permits an early and detailed assessment of malnutrition, especially for non-obvious risk patients with normal or higher BMIs.
• Identify risk patients with impaired nutritional and functional status, and body water abnormalities.
• Provides a detailed understanding of hydration and body cell mass using BIVA (Bio-Impedance Vector Analysis).
• Device-specific normal ranges for BIVA are shown as tolerance ellipses and adjusted for gender, height, and ethnicity. Thus, identifying patients with critical fluid overload and body cell mass loss, both of which are associated with increased risk of mortality.
• Fully customized results summary visually displays all measurement parameters in an easy-to read format.
• Unique accuracy through whole-body MRI validation and 4C model
• Handrail with fixed handle positions: Measurements are reproducible and reliable
• Validation studies are bundled and published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition 2013/2017, among others
• Measuring time is only 17 seconds
• Possible to evaluate the measurement directly on the monitor
• Quick to understand and clear graphics with normal ranges
• Easy-to-use, 360° rotatable touchscreen
• Extra-large platform: Enough space even for extremely tall people or people affected by severe obesity
• Scientifi c mode may be selected, ideal for studies, science and teaching
• Three handle options for finer graduation of arm posture and measurement height
• EMR-validated: transmit measured data directly to any Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system
