ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for measuring resistance of a blood sample in order to determine the hematocrit of that blood sample. The present invention makes a direct ratiometric measurement. That is, the alternating current that flows through the sample is directly measured by applying that alternating current to an integrator which converts the current to a D.C. voltage which is directly proportional to the applied current.
