Abstract:
Apparatus for performing impedance measurements on a subject. The apparatus includes a first processing system for determining an impedance measurement procedure and determining instructions corresponding to the measurement procedure. A second processing system is provided for receiving the instructions, using the instructions to generate control signals, with the control signals being used to apply one or more signals to the subject. The second processing system then receives first data indicative of the one or more signals applied to the subject, second data indicative of one or more signals measured across the subject and performs at least preliminary processing of the first and second data to thereby allow impedance values to be determined.

Claim (Index 1):
A system for performing impedance measurements on a subject, the system comprising:\n a plurality of electrodes configured to be placed in contact with the skin of the subject; a signal generator coupled to at least a first subset of the plurality of electrodes; a sensor coupled to at least a second subset of the plurality of electrodes; a first processing system configured to:\n generate control signals to cause the signal generator to generate one or more alternating signals which are applied to the subject via the first subset of the plurality of electrodes; \n receive an indication of sensed signals through the subject from the sensor; and \n wirelessly communicate information relating to the indication of sensed signals to a second processing system after receiving the indication of sensed signals; and, \n a housing, the housing comprising at least the signal generator, the sensor, and the first processing system, the system configured to measure and record at least one of:\n changes in fluid levels; \n a presence, absence or degree of at least one of:\n oedema; \n pulmonary oedema; \n lymphedema; and, \n cardiac function.
