Implantable wireless sensor for in vivo pressure measurement and continuous output determination

A method and apparatus for determining cardiac parameters within the body of a patient includes a wireless sensor positioned in the patient's pulmonary artery. An external RF telemetry device communicates wirelessly with the sensor and interrogates the sensor to determine changes in pressure in the pulmonary artery over time. The peak pressure difference is determined. Then, assuming zero blood flow velocity at the time of valve opening and at the time of valve closing, a velocity-time function is determined. The velocity-time function is used to determine a velocity-time integral. The velocity-time integral is then used to determine cardiac stroke volume. The cardiac stroke volume is multiplied times the heartbeat rate to determine cardiac output. The cardiac output can be monitored over time to determine continuous cardiac output.

MEMS-based getter microdevice

A MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical system) getter microdevice for controlling the ambient pressure inside the hermetic packages that enclose various types of MEMS, photonic, or optoelectronic devices. The getter microdevice revolves around a platform suspended at a height above a substrate, and which is supported by supporting legs having low thermal conductance. Layers are deposited on the platform, such layers including a properly patterned resistor element, a heat-spreading layer and, finally, a thin-film getter material. When an electrical current flows through it, the resistor element heats the thin-film getter material until it reaches its activation temperature. The getter material then absorbs the gas species that could be present in the hermetic package, such gas species possibly impairing the operation of the devices housed in the packages while reducing their lifetime. The weak thermal conductance between the platform and the substrate helps in preventing damages to the surrounding devices when the MEMS getter microdevice is heated at its activation temperature, and it reduces the electrical power required for reaching the activation temperature as well.

Blood pressure measurement

The diastolic blood pressure and a systolic blood pressure of a vertebrate are measured using an inflatable pressure cuff disposed about a limb of the vertebrate and connected to an inflation device through a single conduit. A pressure sensor is pneumatically connected to the cuff through the same common conduit. The sensed pressures at the diastolic and systolic points are corrected for a pressure differential associated with the flow of an inflation fluid through the common conduit. The sensed pressures at the diastolic point and the systolic point may be measured during inflation of the cuff or during controlled deflation of the cuff.
