ABSTRACT:
A method and device are described which are particularly useful for continuous on-line monitoring of hematocrit and other blood parameters. The effect of change in blood electrolyte composition, for example, in blood sodium concentration, is taken into consideration. This effect has been found to change light beam geometry, and is taken advantage of to provide for blood sodium concentration measurement. The devices may be applied to extracorporeal circuits or to body parts capable of being transilluminated. The devices may be used to optimize dialysis, and also for monitoring optically detectable, exogenous macromolecules.
