Abstract: The invention relates to a device and method for detecting electrical potentials on the human or animal body, with a body-side arrangement of electrodes (3) and a body-side management unit (4). According to the invention, the conductive pathways (19) between electrodes (3) and management unit (4) include at least in certain areas electrically conductive liquids (17). The pathways (19) are preferably designed as fluid-filled pad segments (16). The invention also relates to a device and method of the aforementioned kind with a body-side arrangement of electrodes (3) and a preferably body-side management unit (4) and/or a preferably remote processing unit (10), which communicate with each other by means of radio transmission (8) using at least one transmitter (7) and at least one receiver (9). It is contemplated that the means of radio transmission (8) preferably comprise transmitter (7) and receiver (9) according to the Zig Bee, Wibree, Bluetooth or ULP standard.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an apparatus and method for injecting an injectate fluid into a blood vessel of a patient for carrying out thermodilution or dye-dilution measurements in order to determine hemodynamic parameters of the patient. The apparatus includes sensing means for sensing a change of pressure and/or flow rate and/or temperature inside the injection channel, and a computer coupled to the sensing means for determining the time instants of start and finish of the injection process.

Abstract: A device for individual in-vivo determination of the compliance function C(p)=dV/dp of the vascular system downstream of a ventricle and/or systemic blood flow of a living being from the blood pressure p(t) and a reference cardiac output COref.
