Wireless coexistence for remote patient monitoring
Read more
The demand for wireless medical applications such as remote patient monitoring, real-time diagnostic analysis, smart surgical systems, and implantable sensors has grown over the last couple of years. Thanks to implanted medical devices, many patients live an almost normal life without having their mobility compromised. Popular implants include cardiac pacemakers, implantable defibrillators, nerve stimulators (functional electrical stimulation, FES), bladder stimulators, implantable infusion pumps, biomonitoring devices such as the capsule endoscope and implantable drug delivery systems. A patient’s quality of life is vastly improved by implants using wireless communication; the risk of inflammation and infection, often caused by connecting wires and tubes, is reduced, as well as being more convenient.
