BIOENGINEERING SYSTEM FOR BIOIMPEDANCE CONTROL Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A61B5/53 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medical equipment. A bioengineering system for bioimpedance control consists of a computer and a mobile unit comprising active and passive electrodes and their current leads, an electronic module, a power supply battery and a wireless interface connected to an output of the electronic module and connecting the mobile unit and computer through a radio channel. A mobile unit body is configured as a hollow cylinder covered from one side with a cone-shaped cap, and on the other side - with a cylindrical lid. The body integrates the electronic module and a membrane mounted perpendicularly with a long axis of the cylindrical body, in the middle of which there is one end of an active electrode rod attached. The other end of the active electrode is integrated into an axial hole of the cone-shaped cap. An outer surface of the body bears a passive electrode representing a current-conducting ring, a button, the above wireless interface and power supply battery, a common wire of which is connected to the passive electrode and a first output of the button.

EFFECT: using the invention is expected to improve accuracy and operational efficiency of bioimpedance studies by enabling the patient to read out the information from the skin surface by him-/herself and thereby control a pressure force of the electrode, as well as by ensuring real-time bioimpedance data transmission into telecommunication networks.
