How Body Composition Analysis Transformed Care at Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital
At Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital, Registered Nurse Carah Horn has experienced firsthand the positive impact of integrating body composition analysis into their care model. Initially relying on BMI to assess obesity, the team soon realized that a more comprehensive approach was necessary to provide their patients with a clearer picture of their health.
By shifting the focus to body composition measurements, such as muscle mass and visceral adipose tissue, patients now have a better understanding of their progress—even when weight loss plateaus. This data helps them stay motivated as they see improvements in their health beyond the number on the scale, which can be especially encouraging during challenging phases of their weight-loss journey.
Carah highlights how the Seca body composition analyzer has played a vital role in this transformation. Its four-point contact system offers stability and accuracy for patients, especially those with mobility concerns. The built-in software and cloud capabilities have also streamlined the process, allowing patients to access their results easily and freeing the staff from unnecessary overhead like managing printouts and hardware.
This tool hasn’t just benefited patients undergoing medical or surgical weight-loss programs; it has expanded its reach to include staff members and the broader community. Carah shares how they even brought the analyzer to health fairs, where it increased visibility for their weight-loss program and offered a new revenue stream through partnerships with local Med Spas and sports teams.
For Carah and her team, integrating body composition analysis with Seca’s tools has enhanced patient care and created new opportunities for health improvement and community engagement. Whether for improving patient outcomes, motivating staff, or fostering new business, Seca’s body composition analyzers have proven to be an invaluable asset.
In a patient-focused setting, Dr. Nguyen, MD, and her colleagues use seca’s medical body composition analyzer in addition to blood tests to quickly determine a patient’s state of health. Patients gratefully experience a reduction in their daily medicine intake and an improvement in their quality of life.
David Nieman, PhD, Director of the Human Performance Lab at the Appalachian State University in Kannapolis, NC uses the seca mBCA in his human performance research. The body composition analysis provides him with accurate information about a test subject’s fat mass, fat-free mass, and skeletal muscle mass.
David Voellinger, MD describes the value of body composition analysis in clinical application. He speaks to his use of the seca medical Body Composition Analyzer (mBCA) pre-op and the value of being able to determine the development of fat mass and skeletal muscle mass independently when determining an individualized weight loss regimen for his patients. He appreciates the four-extremities display of muscle mass and the ability to determine whether a patient’s water weight is mostly held in muscle or if it is water otherwise retained in the body.
Felice Gersh of the Integrative Medical Group of Irvine, CA declares her goal to prevent changes in body composition of menopausal women by utilizing the seca mBCA 514. This medical device gives her insights into the development of her patient’s fat mass, fat-free mass, muscle mass, visceral fat, phase angle, and water weight and helps her in determining how to respond with the appropriate hormone therapy.
