  • Patent number: 6339722
    Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for the in vivo non-invasive measurement of a biological parameter concerning a bodily fluid of a person or animal in accordance with a calculation model, wherein the apparatus is provided with connections for at least two pairs of electrodes (2-5, 8-11) to be placed on the skin of a part of the body, a pair of input electrodes (2, 3, 8, 9) for feeding a measuring alternating current to the part of the body and a measuring pair of electrodes (4, 5, 10, 11) for measuring the voltage at the measuring pair of electrodes, comprising a current source (7, 12) providing the measuring alternating current, a transformer (31) for the transformation of the measuring voltage into a bio-impedance signal, being a measure of the bio-impedance of the part of the body, and means for the generation of signals which form a measure for further parameters to be determined with the aid of the calculating model, said signals encompassing a signal forming a measure for the time derivative of the
