Date May 27, 1993.A method of measuring the electric conductivity of body fluids. It uses several test electrodes positioned at various sites at one area of the body to determine electric resistance. The measurements are obtained with a test probe that accommodates the test electrodes. The resistances detected by the test electrodes are polled and the minimal resistance is exploited as a reference for determining electric conductivity. The test probe employed to carry out the method is characterized by a large number of point-shaped test electrodes distributed over the surface of the test probe and associated with the same grounding device.
