ABSTRACT

Currently, there is no suitable solution for the point-of-care diagnosis of knee injuries. A potential portable and low-cost technique for accessing and monitoring knee injuries is bioimpedance measurement. This study validated the feasibility of the bipolar electrode configuration for knee bioimpedance measurement with two electrodes placed on a fixed pair of knee acupuncture locations called Xiyan. Then, the study collected 76 valid samples to investigate the relationship between bioimpedance and knee injuries, among whom 39 patients have unilateral knee injuries, and 37 individuals have healthy knees. The self-contrast results indicated that knee injuries caused a reduction of bioimpedance of the knee by about 5% on average, which was detectable at around 100 kHz (p ≈ 0.001). Furthermore, the results analyzed by principal component analysis and support vector machines show that the detection sensitivity can reach 87.18% using the leave-one-out cross-validation. We also proposed a low-cost and portable bioimpedance measurement device that meets the needs for measuring knee joint bioimpedance.
