System And Method For Wireless Biosensor Monitoring
US Patent:
2013001, Jan 17, 2013
Filed:
Nov 24, 2010
Appl. No.:
13/511580
Inventors:
Christopher C. Thompson - Needham MA, US
Robert Westervelt - Lexington MA, US
Alex Nemiroski - Cambridge MA, US

International Classification:
A61B 5/07
US Classification:
600302
Abstract:
A system and method for monitoring a physical parameter of a subject is provided. The system may include a casing with a sensor coupled to the casing. The sensor may be configured to detect a physical parameter of the subject. The physical parameter may include a chemical parameter of the subject. The system includes an endoscopic clip coupled to the casing and may include a wireless transmitter for transmitting a signal via a wireless medium. The signal encodes the physical parameter of the subject detected by the sensor and the wireless transmitter is electronically connected to the endoscopic clip. The system may further include a monitor configured to communicate with the wireless transmitter for receiving the signal encoding the physical parameter of the subject.
System And Method Of Tetherless Insufflation In Colon Capsule Endoscopy

US Classification:
600560
Abstract:
A system and method of wireless controlled COinsufflation for use in colon capsule endoscopy. The system includes a device to inflate the colon through the use of a swallowable capsule including a first compound and a second compound for generating a biocompatible chemical reaction that provides a level of insufflation to enhance visualization and to allow for magnetic locomotion within the colon. The chemical reaction achieves relevant colon insufflation (enough to enable diagnostic relevance) by producing CO(carbon dioxide).
