Abstract
An implantable extravascular pressure sensing system includes a cuff including a first brace portion affixed to a second brace portion and defining a longitudinal axis therebetween. The first brace portion defines a fluid chamber, the fluid chamber defining a recessed aperture. A first lateral restraint and a second lateral restraint are disposed between the first brace and the second brace, the first lateral restraint and the second lateral restraint being configured to be displaceable in a direction orthogonal to the longitudinal axis. A diaphragm is coupled to the fluid chamber and sealing the recessed aperture. A fluid is disposed within the fluid chamber for exhibiting a hydraulic pressure in communication with the diaphragm. A pressure sensor is coupled to the first brace portion, the pressure sensor being configured to measure a change in the hydraulic pressure when a force is imparted on the diaphragm.
