Remote Monitoring of Bioelectrical Impedance in Patients With Breast Cancer–Related Lymphedema: 1-Year Pilot Longitudinal Study
Breast cancer–related lymphedema (BCRL) is a chronic complication that impairs quality of life through persistent fluid accumulation. While clinical guidelines recommend longitudinal surveillance, implementation is often limited by the logistical challenges of frequent in-clinic visits. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), specifically the segmental extracellular water–to–total body water (ECW/TBW) ratio, offers a noninvasive method for tracking fluid status.
Medigy Insights
Home-based bioelectrical impedance measurements showed potential for supporting early detection and ongoing surveillance of lymphedema, helping clinicians monitor disease progression while reducing the need for frequent in-person visits.
