ABSTRACT:
An impedance monitor for discerning edema through evaluation of respiratory rate. Preferred embodiment includes edema monitor and trigger to initiate diagnostic reporting or corrective action when activated. Recording of Long Term Average and Short Term Average values for secondary edema measure based on DC signal level are described as are methods and apparatus for removing unwanted recurring noise.
