Abstract
This study was aimed at finding out changes in body composition of obese patients, such as body weight, body fat mass and lean body mass. The subjects of this study are 33 females and 6 males who are from obesity clinic at Gunsan medical center. We measured body composition using BIA(Bioelectrical Impedence Analysis) to compare pre-treatment with post-treatment. The measured data were analyzed by paired t-test using SPSS. Differences were considered significant at P<0.05. Body weigh, body fat mass and lean body mass were reduced each by $3.76{\pm}23.41{\;}kg,{\;}2.29{\pm}1.96kg{\;}and{\;}1.59{\pm}1.38kg$ at a significant level after 4 week-treatment.
