Abstract

The continuous monitoring of vascular health achievable by implantable electronics can offer improved disease diagnosis and treatments. We developed a wireless nanomembrane system consisting of a smart stent and soft sensors to enable simultaneous monitoring of blood pressure, blood flow, and pulse rate.
