| Abstract | To assess the accuracy of BMI compared to directly measured dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry percent body fat (DEXA %BF) among a worker compensation population. Methods: The agreement between BMI and DEXA %BF was assessed by the Pearson correlation coefficient among 1394 evaluable patients over a 5-year period. Sensitivity and specificity were calculated to measure how well BMI can identify true obese and nonobese individuals. Results: Using at least 30kg/m Conclusions: In a 5-year cohort worker compensation population, BMI was an inaccurate measure of true obesity. |
