Abstract

The invention relates to a diagnostic sensor unit for the non-invasive detection of at least one physiological parameter of body tissue near the surface of the skin. The diagnostic sensor unit comprises an optical measurement unit (100) having at least one radiation source (4) for irradiating the tissue to be examined and at least one radiation sensor (5) for detecting the radiation scattered and/or transmitted by the tissue, and an EKG unit (132) for detecting an EKG signal via two or more EKG electrodes (7), wherein at least one radiation source (4) and at least one radiation sensor (5) of the optical measurement unit are disposed in a common sensor housing (400) and wherein at least one EKG electrode (7) of the EKG unit (132) is disposed on the housing surface of the sensor housing (400), specifically such that the EKG electrode (7) comes into contact with the surface of the skin in the area of body tissue detected by the optical measurement unit (100).
