ABSTRACT
Introduction: metabolic syndrome is essential in incidence and prevention of cardiovascular disease. Detection is limited and the usual tools require invasive and serological methods for classification.
Objective: to describe the importance and essential aspects of bioelectrical impedance as a practical tool for the detection of metabolic syndrome.
Material and methods: a narrative review was carried out selecting articles that met the following criteria: Age less than 10 years, publications in English and Spanish with the following terms: "bioelectrical impedance", "metabolic syndrome", "metabolic syndrome" and "bioelectric impedance". The following search engines were used: Google Academic and PubMed.
Results: twenty articles were reviewed including narrative reviews, systematic reviews, and clinical trials. Several studies demonstrated the usefulness of bioelectric impedance as a screening tool, per quartile increase in muscle mass decreases the likelihood of metabolic syndrome by 25% and the usefulness of fat-to-muscle ratio by bioimpedance as an early detection tool.
Conclusions: bioimpedance for the detection of patients with metabolic syndrome is still under study. This tool has been used in other pathologies with promising results. Current evidence suggests that this method should be considered for future decision making.
