NUTRILAB™

NUTRILAB™ is the multi-function ultraportable, touch operated bioimpedance analyser for bedside assessment of nutritional and hydration status.

Developed for real time classification of patient fluid and nutritional status, NUTRILAB™ is a great help for stratifying the risk of patients receiving artificial nourishment, acute and post-acute patients, intensive care patients and critical patients in general. Through bioelectrical impedance analysis, the sensor offers an immediate overview of nutritional status and any malnutrition, intra-extracellular ratios, fluid overload or dehydration, and cellular depletion or vitality.

NUTRILAB™ can be used on patients fitted with cardiac active stimulation and pacemaker devices.

NUTRILAB™ can also be used directly at the patient’s bedside to manage:

• the main nutritional screening questionnaires (MNA®, Must®, NRS 2002);
• the waist/hip ratio for cardiovascular risk assessment;
• calculation of the nutritional scores and indexes BCMI, FMI and FFMI
