DEVICE FOR MEASURING AT LEAST A PHYSICAL PARAMETER IN A CAVITY OF THE ORGANISM OF A LIVING BEING

摘要

The invention concerns a device for measuring at least a physical parameter in a cavity of the organism of a living being and/or for controlling a function of an actuator implanted in said organism comprising a capsule (21) for measuring a physical parameter such as pressure. Said capsule (21) contains at least a sensor (11) for measuring the specified parameter, means for processing signals from the sensor, a storage and power supply means (14). The capsule (21) may also comprise means for communicating data corresponding to the signals generated by the sensor. Said communication means consist of a communication management device and a transducer (19) capable of transmitting ultrasonic signals, to a reading equipment arranged outside the living being.
