In this instrument:
                             being immobile means having gross diminution or near complete absence of movement of the body, such as could occur as a result of paralysis, lower limb fracture or being bed-bound.
                             being overweight or obese means having a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 25 or greater.
Note: BMI is also defined in the Schedule 1 - Dictionary.
                             BMI means W/H2 where:
W is the person's weight in kilograms; and
H is the person's height in metres.
                                     distal renal tubular acidosis means an acquired syndrome of hyperchloraemic metabolic acidosis due to distal tubular dysfunction, characterised by hypokalaemia, alkaline urine, low urine citrate excretion, hypercalciuria, and often bone disease.
                                     hyperuricaemia means a serum uric acid level of at least 6.8 mg/dL (404 micromoles/litre).
                                     inadequate fluid intake means fluid intake:
         (a)          that is insufficient to maintain an average daily urine volume of at least 750 millilitres; or
         (b)          that results in urine which is consistently darker than a pale yellow colour, and there is no biochemical or medical reason for such colouration other than inadequate hydration.
         Note:  Urine that is darker than a pale yellow colour corresponds to grades 4 to 8 on a standard dehydration urine colour chart.
                                     malabsorptive bariatric procedure means a surgical weight-loss technique which alters the structure of the digestive tract, allowing food to bypass portions of the small intestine.  Examples of such procedures include, but are not limited to, distal or total gastrectomy, biliopancreatic diversion and duodenal switch.  Purely restrictive bariatric procedures, such as laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, are not considered malabsorptive bariatric procedures.
                                     MRCA means the Military Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 2004.
                                     neurogenic bladder means flaccid, spastic or mixed bladder dysfunction caused by neurological damage affecting the bladder.
         Note:  Examples of causes of neurogenic bladder include, but are not limited to, spinal cord injury, cerebrovascular accident, Parkinson's disease and diabetic autonomic neuropathy.
                                     relevant service means:
         (a)          operational service under the VEA;
         (b)          peacekeeping service under the VEA;
         (c)          hazardous service under the VEA;
         (d)          British nuclear test defence service under the VEA;
         (e)          warlike service under the MRCA; or
         (f)           non-warlike service under the MRCA.
Note: MRCA and VEA are also defined in the Schedule 1 - Dictionary.
