1. Microprocessor-based, self-contained, biomedical monitoring apparatus comprising a control unit comprising a microprocessor and programmable memory in operative communication with means for data input and means for informing as to an analytical value obtained;

  • a microprocessor-controlled, pressure-exerting assembly;

    an internal power source for said control unit and said pressure-exerting assembly;

    a compartmentalized, analysis device having an inlet coupled to a source of multiple samlpes in the form of a separate device, said separate device being an exteriorly located, blood plasma-separating device, and comprising a compressible reagent chamber and compressible reaction chamber, said reagent chamber being adapted for fluid communication with said reaction chamber, which has outflow means in fluid communication with a flow through, analysis cell for microprocessor-controlled delivery of analyzable liquid to said analysis cell; and

    analytical sensor means situated adjacent said analysis cell, said microprocessor being in operative communication with said analytical sensor means for analysis of said analyzable liquid.
