A cardiac pressure monitoring device includes a fixation member defining a central opening to facilitate slidably positioning the fixation device about a pacemaker lead wire. At least one sensor is coupled to the fixation member. The at least one sensor is configured to sense a physical, chemical, and/or physiological parameter within a cardiac chamber.

Cardiac pressure monitoring device

A method for fabricating a wireless pressure sensor includes providing a first substrate. A portion of the first substrate is controllably displaced to form a cavity. A conducting material is patterned on the first substrate to form a first capacitor plate and a first inductor. A second substrate is provided. A conducting material is patterned on the second substrate to form a second capacitor plate. The second substrate is attached to the first substrate to seal the cavity such that at least a portion of the second substrate is movable with respect to the first substrate within the cavity in response to a change in an external condition. A hermetically sealed capacitive pressure sensor may reside in the cavity between the first substrate and second substrate.
