•
Height
The patient’s height, in whichever units were selected in the “Edit Preferences” form.
•
Weight
The patient’s weight, in whichever units were selected in the “Edit Preferences” form.
•
Age
The patient’s age.
•
Gender
To enter the patient’s gender, enter ‘1’ if the person is male, ‘2’ if the person is female. If
the patient has undergone surgery for gender reassignment, it is important to enter the pa-
tient’s original gender at birth. Men and women are genetically programmed to distribute
fat throughout the body differently, and these differences in distribution need to be com-
pensated for by the Q3 when the resistance and reactance values are analyzed.
•
Frame Size
The Q3 will adjust its calculation of the patient’s target weight based on their frame size.
Enter ‘1’ for a small frame, ‘2’ for a medium frame, and ‘3’ for a large frame. For detail
on measuring frame size, see
How do I measure frame size?
The Subject Input Form
PERFORMING A BIA TEST
•
Subject ID
This field is used by your computer to be able to differentiate one
patient from another.
•
The Subject ID field is REQUIRED if:
1) You will be saving the test record on the Q3 to be later
transmitted to your PC or
2) You will be using the RF link to print reports from your PC.
•
The Subject ID field is OPTIONAL if:
1) You do not plan to save the tests or
2) You are not going to use the RF Link to print reports.
•
An example of a setting where you might not want to save the re-
ports would be if you were performing BIA tests at a health fair,
where you were seeing large numbers of people whom you did
not expect to see as long-term clients.
Select “Subject Input” from the main menu. The top four lines of this page are shown on the
right. Here is a brief rundown of what the input fields are asking for:
