Summary

The purpose of this study was to validate the Stayhealthy BC1 bioelectrical impedance analyzer to assess percent body fat in children and adults. The BC1 was compared to dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry assessment of body fat for adults and to hydrostatic weighing assessment of body fat for children. We hypothesized that the BC1 would provide similar measures of body fat between devices with acceptable limits of agreement.
