Composition of body fluids in women during pregnancy
Bardová, Petra ; Hronek, Miloslav (advisor) ; Kovařík, Miroslav (referee)
The aim of this work was to measure and evaluate the amount of body fluids of pregnant women during pregnancy and its link with other monitored parameters. The Bioimpedance spectroscopy method used the Body Composition Monitor from Fresenius Medical Care in order to collect data on body fluid status in ten pregnant women enrolled in a longitudinal clinical study conducted in collaboration with the Faculty of Pharmacy of Charles University and the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the University Hospital in Hradec Králové. The device measured bioimpedance on 50 frequencies in the range from 5 KHz to 1000 KHz and all women underwent a total of three examinations in specified periods (week 17-27, 28-35 and 36-38 week of pregnancy). During each measurement, main focus was compliance with standard conditions and correct execution. During the study period, statistically significant changes in body fluid volumes were observed in women. The median total body water (TBW) volume increased by 3.8 l, the median extracellular water (ECW) volume by 1.4 l and the median intracellular water (ICW) volume increased by 2.3 l. The increase in body fluids was accompanied by a decrease in resistance values. Decrease in values during pregnancy was also shown in the overhydration parameter. Spearman's correlation...
