Abstract
An implantable wireless sensor is provided that comprises a plurality of substrates joined together to form a body with a hermetically sealed cavity therein. A capacitor (C) is provided within the cavity. A first capacitor plate is formed on an internal surface of the first substrate. An inductor (L) is provided within the cavity and coupled to form an LC resonant circuit. At least a portion of the first substrate comprises a deflectable region mechanically coupled to the first capacitor plate. The deflectable region is configured to deflect in response to changes in pressure in the artery altering a spacing between the capacitor plates and altering a resonant frequency of the LC resonant circuit. First and second anchoring elements are coupled to the body and include flexible wire loops configured to extend outward from the body to lodge within a lumen of the artery.
