Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems for reducing electrical leakage current between a patient and a medical device include sensing electrical current in a fluid line and inducing a cancelling electrical current or voltage to reduce the electrical leakage current. A system for implementing the method includes one or more sensors/transducers and a controller that drives the transducer(s) based on signals from the sensor(s).
