<p>Apparatus for monitoring the progress of haemodialysis by extracorporeal measurement of the impedance of the blood, comprising a measurement cell (9) intended to be placed in a haemodialysis circuit, a constant current generator (10), an impedance meter (11), the said measurement cell (9) comprising a semi-rigid tube (1) provided with two openings which are closed by caps (2,3), two electrodes (6,7) passing through the said caps, and each connected to the current source (10) on the one hand, and to the impedance meter (11) on the other hand. A computer (13) receiving the signal supplied by the impedance meter (11), and controlling an indicator of the progress of the haemodialysis, monitors the progress of the haemodialysis by extracorporeal measurement of the haematocrit: - at a given instant, the variation of a function of the haematocrit over a short period of time, and over a medium-length period of time, preceding this instant, as well as from the start of the haemodialysis session, is calculated, - the values of these variations are compared, - the result of this comparison is a first indication of the progress of the haemodialysis. <IMAGE></p> |
