Abstract

A device for measuring electrical resistance on a patient's skin by applying an electrical signal thereto at least one first BAP before and after electrical stimulation of at least one second BAP, the device comprising at least one active electrode adapted to contact said first BAP and to apply thereto said electrical signal, at least one dual-purpose electrode, adapted to operate in a grounding mode of operation when said electrical signal is applied by said active electrode to said first BAP, and a stimulating mode for performing said stimulation to said second BAP, and a controller adapted to control said dual-purpose electrode to switch between said grounding and stimulating modes of operation.
