Implantable Sensors And Ultrasonic Data Link With Triggered Bioresorption For Next-Gen Wireless Cardiac Monitoring
Next-Generation Dissolvable Wireless Implant Promises To Reduce Heart Failure Riskspost-Operative Monitoring After Heart Surgery Is Critical To Survival. However, Most Techniques Do Not Offer Continual Monitoring, Nor Are They Available Outside Hospitals. Implants Exist, But They Require Removal Surgery, Which Puts Patients At Further Risk. The Eu-Funded 2Nd-Chance Project Is Developing A Next-Generation Implant That Will Allow Continual Monitoring. It Will Be Battery-Free And Use Ultrasonics For Wireless Connectivity. When No Longer Necessary, An External Light Source Will Activate Its Harmless Dissolution. Not Only Will This Mitigate Heart Failure Risks By Providing Early Warning, It Will Also Entirely Eliminate The Need For Removal Surgery. Moreover, The Envisioned Technology Is Expected To Be Applicable To Other Medical Fields.
