Neonatal ADP Gold Standard Body Composition
Air displacement technique for fat and fat-free mass analysis in neonatal applications
Infant body composition by Air Displacement Plethysmography for research and clinical applications
- Gold Standard accuracy using whole-body densitometric principles
- Excellent test-to-test repeatability
- Fat and fat-free mass measurements
- Fast test time (about 7 minutes total test time) (see demo video)
- Safe, non-invasive, and ideally suited for frequent testing
- Accomodates most infant behaviors (crying, movement)
The PEA POD is an Air Displacement Plethysmography (ADP) system using whole body densitometry to determine body composition (fat and fat-free mass) in infants weighing between 1 and 8 kg. The PEA POD is extremely simple to operate, with software prompts guiding the operator through each step of the process. From start to finish, a PEA POD test takes about 7 minutes. The accuracy of the PEA POD has been shown to be very high against reference techniques in a number of research publications.
