FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: versions of monitors for measurement of whole body composition of examined person contain multiple manual electrodes and multiple foot electrodes; measuring unit for measurement of first difference of potentials between hand and foot and for measurement of second difference of potentials between both hands or between both feet; first unit of computation of body composition for computation of first composition of whole body with application of impedance (Zw) of whole body; correcting unit for correction of impedance (Zh - impedance between two hands, Zf - impedance between two feet) between two extremities; and second unit (105) of computation of body composition for computation of second composition of whole body with application of impedance between two extremities, corrected by correcting unit.
EFFECT: application of said group of inventions allows to increase accuracy of measurement of whole body composition and facilitate manipulation.
