Intended Purpose
The device should be used as an adjunct for clinical decision making and is not intended to diagnose or treat any
diseases.
I
nBody S10 in mainly used for healthy and acute or chronically ill populations in hospitals, medical practices
and inpatient care facilities in accordance with national regulations. It can be used to assist in the assessment of
nutritional status, obesity and muscle balance. Body composition analysis is important in preventive medicine since
it provides the basis of appropriate physical activity and dietary habits for improving personal daily routine. It can be
also usefully applied to follow-up studies of patients treated for various diseases.
Intended Use and Medical Indication
• Medical check-up: Four body composition analysis can be identified for the risk of developing diseases that are highly related
to body composition imbalance like obesity, malnutrition, fluid imbalance and osteoporosis for medical check-up
• Obesity: Percent body fat has been recommended rather than BMI to ensure proper weight loss and improvements in long-
term health, tracking changes for adjusting/developing customized treatments
• Pediatric obesity: Body composition measurement is an essential part of health assessments for children and adolescents.
Percent Body fat is better than the indicators of weight status to identify children and adolescents with unfavorable lipid
profile.
• Sarcopenia: InBody provides a quick, easy to perform test that provides a calculation for skeletal muscle index (SMI),
the sum of the lean mass in the arms and legs, normalized for height. This marker is useful in identifying low muscle in the
appendages, which increases frailty risk.
• Diabetes & endocrinology: Diabetes is often associated with excess fat, however having insufficient muscle mass is just as
detrimental and increases diabetes risk. And visceral fat plays a key role in the development of metabolic and cardiovascular
disease.
• Edema: Over-hydration as assessed by ECW ratio(ECW/TBW) is prevalent in dialysis patients, and is associated with loss
of residual renal function, inflammation, malnutrition and hypertension. Monitoring the ECW ratio (ECW/TBW) provides
an assessment of fluid accumulation in the extracellular space resulting from compromised cardiovascular function. The
patients who did not have ascites originally but have higher ECW/TBW had a higher incidence of ascites in liver cirrhosis.
• Segmental fluid retention: InBody objectively measures each region of the body separately and provides segmental ECW
ratio measures for each of the arms, legs and the trunk, and these measures can be used to detect fluid imbalances resulting
from the development or progression of lymphedema.
• Nutrition: The four primary components of the nutritional assessment are summarized by the mnemonic ABCD, with A
standing for anthropometric measurements including stature, body weight, BMI and body composition. Body composition
analysis can reveal changes in body composition (body water, protein, minerals and body fat) that cannot be known by
changes in body weight.
• Fitness: Strength training greatly stimulates muscle growth, exercise burn the calories strengthens cardiorespiratory capacity,
which reduce the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and other health concerns and result in the various changes in body
composition. Body composition analysis shows skeletal muscle mass and lean in each segment of body, it helps focusing on
building more muscle or correct imbalance.
* InBody S10 is not a diagnostic device. To make an accurate diagnosis, the physician needs to commission thorough
examinations and take their results into account in addition to the results of the InBody S10.
* The InBody S10 is not used in home healthcare environment.
