Implantable pressure-sensing systems where the sensing and electronic functions are anatomically distributed in different locations for reduced size and reduced risk of complications are disclosed. An inventive implantable pressure-sensing device can include a pressure-sensing element, readout electronics, and a bridge connecting and operably coupling the pressure-sensing element to the readout electronics. The implantable pressure system(s) can include a conformal coating that hermetically seals the system's modules with biocompatible surfaces before being implanted. An inventive system can be used in a wide range of applications for implanted pressure sensing, including intraocular, cardiovascular, and bladder applications.
An implantable pressure-sensing device comprising:
A method of measuring pressure in a mammalian subject with an implanted cardiovascular pressure sensing system, the method comprising:
A method of implanting a pressure-sensing device in a mammalian subject, the method comprising:
