How Body Composition Analysis Transformed Care at Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital
At Orlando Health Bayfront Hospital, Registered Nurse Carah Horn has experienced firsthand the positive impact of integrating body composition analysis into their care model. Initially relying on BMI to assess obesity, the team soon realized that a more comprehensive approach was necessary to provide their patients with a clearer picture of their health.
By shifting the focus to body composition measurements, such as muscle mass and visceral adipose tissue, patients now have a better understanding of their progress—even when weight loss plateaus. This data helps them stay motivated as they see improvements in their health beyond the number on the scale, which can be especially encouraging during challenging phases of their weight-loss journey.
Carah highlights how the seca body composition solutions have played a vital role in this transformation. Its four-point contact system offers stability and accuracy for patients, especially those with mobility concerns. The built-in software and cloud capabilities have also streamlined the process, allowing patients to access their results easily and freeing the staff from unnecessary overhead like managing printouts and hardware.
This tool hasn’t just benefited patients undergoing medical or surgical weight-loss programs; it has expanded its reach to include staff members and the broader community. Carah shares how they even brought the analyzer to health fairs, where it increased visibility for their weight-loss program and offered a new revenue stream through partnerships with local Med Spas and sports teams.
For Carah and her team, integrating body composition analysis with seca’s tools has enhanced patient care and created new opportunities for health improvement and community engagement. Whether for improving patient outcomes, motivating staff, or fostering new business, seca’s body composition solutions have proven to be an invaluable asset.
