Question 31

Skin fold protocols

Answer 31

all measure should be made on the right side of the body with subject standing up right caliper should be placed directly on the skin surface, 1 cm away from the thumb and finger, perpendicular to the skin fold an halfway between the crest and base of the fold pinch should be maintained while reading caliper wait 1-2 s to read caliper take duplicate measures at each site and retest if duplicate measurements are not within 1-2 mm rotate through measurements sites or allow time for skin to regain normal texture and thickness

Question 32

Skin fold administration errors

Answer 32

taking measures on left side of body not placing caliper halway between the crest and base of skinfold not maintaing pinch during measurement waiting longer than 2 s to take measurement not letting skin return to normal texture and thickness taking skinfold measure at the wrong spot using the wrong fold orientation

Question 33

Waist circumference protocols

Answer 33

all measurement should be made with a flexible, yet inelastic tape measure the tape should be placed on the skin surface without compressing the subcutaneous adipose tissue if a gulick type spring loaded tape measure in used, the handle should be extended to the same marking with each trial take duplicate measures at each site and retest if duplicate measurements are not within 5 mm rotate through measurements sites or allow time for skin to regain normal texture

Question 34

Waist circumference administration error

Answer 34

using a tape measure that is not flexible, yet inelastic not placing the tape measure directly on the skin surface compressing adipose tissue during measurement not allowing skin to regain normal texture taking the waist circumference down by the hips not at the anatomical waist

Question 35

BMI calculation

Answer 35

weight/height^2 weight in kg height in m
