Abstract

See full text

Method for bio impedance measurement on a skin surface of a living body, using a bio impedance measurement device having a sensing electrode and a pilot electrode, includes the steps of placing the sensing electrode and pilot electrode on the surface of the body; providing a guard electrode adapted to separate the surface in at least two zones, among which a sensing zone including the sensing electrode and a current injection zone including the pilot electrode; providing a controller, electrically connected to the electrodes, adapted to control the current source; and controlling the potential of the guard electrode, at least at given stopping frequencies, in order to stop current from flowing from one zone to the other.
