Ecomed is proud to present the new seca mBCA – medical Body Composition Analyser at the 16th International Congress of Dietetics this September.

The first clinically validated BCA available will be on show at Darling Harbour Convention Centre from the 5th to the 8th of September. Doctors know that the Body Mass Index (BMI) alone is not enough for extensive analysis of a patient’s health status and body composition.

seca mBCA Launches in Australia

In light of the new epidemics such as obesity, malnutrition, diabetes and metabolic syndrome, it no longer suffices to measure only weight and height. These measures are used to calculate a frequently faulty index for the assessment of a patient’s weight. What about contents of fat, muscle, or water? All of which are important indicators of deadly diseases.

This challenge gave seca enough reason to develop a device to measure body composition (Body Composition Analyzer). The first and only device in the world that delivers all values and has been correlated and validated against the medical science gold standard. The seca mBCA, “m” standing for medical, gives a decisive advantage for doctors.

For the first time ever, a single measurement can be taken in less than 20 seconds to determine fat mass, extracellular and intracellular water, and skeletal muscle mass. All of which are fundamental components that assist in accurately assessing the patient with medical precision. With a simple, user friendly medical device that can be seamlessly integrated into your daily routine.
A valuable diagnostic instrument and innovative device, that delivers precise benefits to your patients.
