Özet
This study uses the bioelectrical impedance method to assess the body composition, basal metabolic rate, and some other physical properties of children with cerebral palsy. In this study, 41 children with spastic cerebral palsy were assessed, and 56 normally developed children were included as control. Parameters such as body compositions, basal metabolic rate, body resistance, liquid compartment, and capacitance of patients and control group were measured and analyzed statistically. Basal metabolic rate, body mass index, extracellular liquid, intracellular liquid, body capacitance, and resistance differed significantly compared to the control group (P < .01), whereas extracellular mass, lean body mass, body cell mass, and fat mass did not differ significantly compared to the control group (P > .05). Parameters such as basal metabolic rate, body composition, and body resistance can be determined using the bioelectrical impedance method in children with cerebral palsy.
