Abstract

Intracranial pressure is of increasing interest in the management of patients who are suffering from various neurological disorders such as hydrocephalus, traumatic brain injury, and blast injury. Long-term monitoring of intracranial pressure may be desirable in these conditions to aid in determining the outcome of any treatment. A completely implantable microwave device for monitoring of intracranial pressure has been designed and characterized. The application of an embedded Planar Inverted-F antenna in this implant is also investigated.
