DEVICE FOR ELECTROACUPUNCTURE DIAGNOSTICS Russian patent published in 2003 - IPC

FIELD: medicine, reflexotherapy. SUBSTANCE: the present innovation deals with predicting different diseases. Device in question has got both active and passive electrodes, supply and measurement unit, change-over switch, interface and computer. Active electrode has got a body with the main and additional electrodes. Additional electrode is designed as a tube and installed in the body with possibility to move, moreover, it has a spring for steady pressing against skin. The main electrode has got microthermopair. Change-over switch is directed into position corresponding to conductivity measurement. Active electrode is installed onto patient's body surface to find biologically active point. Command is directed to computer to take off measurement values to draw electroacupuncture curve. Change-over switch is directed into position for temperature measuring. Command again comes to computer to take off measurement values. One should measure capacity and potential. Then one should pass to the next biologically active point. After fulfilling the whole program of measurements one should use computer to draw multi-criteria model to carry out disease diagnostics. EFFECT: higher reliability of diagnosis. 1 dwg
