Therapeutic indications:

The PEA POD? Infant Body Composition System ("PEA POD") is indicated for measuring the body mass and estimating the body composition (i.e. percent and absolute amounts of fat and lean body mass) of subjects between 1 and 8 kilograms. It is not intended for use with subjects requiring life support. The PEA POD utilizes the principles of whole body densitometry to estimate the amount of fat and lean tissue in the body. Whole body densitometry is based on the determination of body density by measuring body mass and volume. Body mass (weight) is measured using the PEA POD electronic scale and body volume is measured in the PEA POD test chamber. Once body density is known, the subject?s percentage and absolute amounts of fat and fat free mass are automatically calculated using the principles of whole body densitometry.
