12.3 Bioimpedance analysis
Problem
bia tab activated, but module
selection does not appear
Not all modules activated in
module selection
The following message
appears: "Electrode detection
failed."
No PAL value can be entered
after bioimpedance
measurement
No waist circumference can
be entered following
bioimpedance measurement
Results of bioimpedance
measurement deviate
significantly from expected
results
Value of an evaluation
parameter is shown in red
After a different tab has been
called up temporarily, the
assigned seca patient file is
no longer shown in the patient
tab
68 •
Cause
Module selection deactivated
Default module selection specified in
which some modules are deactivated
Patient's skin too dry
Patient's skin too calloused
Electrodes faulty
evaluation module deactivated
Energy
evaluation module
Health risk
deactivated
Patient moved during the
measurement
Patient used different pairs of hand
electrodes on the left and right
Electrodes faulty
Value outside the normal range
determined for the evaluation
parameter
seca patient file selected, but selection
not confirmed
Remedy
Check setting and change if necessary
(see "Adapting default module selection for
bioimpedance analysis" on page 61)
• Activate missing modules directly in the
module selection and perform the
measurement
• Adapt default module selection (see
"Creating default module selection" on
page 62)
Spray the skin with electrode spray at the
contact points
Spray the skin with electrode spray at the
contact points
Inform seca service
• If the
evaluation module is not
Energy
required, continue and complete
measurement
• If the
evaluation module is
Energy
required, activate the evaluation module
(see "Checking module selection" on
page 31 or "Creating default module
selection" on page 62)
• If the
evaluation module is not
Health risk
required, continue and complete
measurement
• If the
evaluation module is
Health risk
required, activate the evaluation module
(see "Checking module selection" on
page 31 or "Creating default module
selection" on page 62)
Request that the patient does not move
during the measurement and repeat the
measurement
Ensure that the patient uses the same
hand electrodes on both sides and repeat
the measurement
Inform seca service
• Repeat the measurement in order to
exclude measurement errors
• If the repeat measurement also produces
a value outside the normal range, take the
value into account in further investigations
Re-assign seca patient file and press the
button (see "Assigning a
confirm
measurement to a patient file" on page 36),
only then call up another tab
