AB  - Introduction: Direct parameters resistance (R), reactance (Xc), phase angle (PA), 
      capacitance of membrane (Cm), and impedance ratio (Z200/Z5)) determined by 
      bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) detect changes in tissue electrical 
      properties and have been found to be a marker of cell membrane function in 
      various diseases. Materials and Method: The cross-sectional study was conducted 
      to investigate whether direct bioimpedance parameters differ in a group of heart 
      failure (HF) patients divided on the basis of the New York Heart Association 
      (NYHA) functional classes I-II and III-IV. BIA was evaluated in 100 patients with 
      HF treated in Clinic of Cardiology and Internal Medicine, Department of 
      Cardiology, Military Hospital, Lublin. Results: In men, lower PA values (p = 
      0.01), Xc (p < 0.01), Cm (p = 0.02), and higher values of the Z200/Z5 ratio (p < 
      0.01) were observed in patients classified into NYHA groups III and IV in 
      comparison to those with lower stages of disease. Similar correlations were noted 
      in women (only Cm differences were insignificant). In addition, in men, 
      C-Reactive Protein (CRP) correlated negatively with PA (p < 0.01), Xc (p < 0.01), 
      and Cm (p < 0.01) and positively with the Z200/Z5 index (p < 0.01). There were no 
      similar correlations observed in women. Conclusion: Patients with advanced CHF 
      have altered electrical values. Changes in electrical values may directly reflect 
      tissues as well as the whole-body condition.
