Abstract

As the cause and the treatment about gastrointestinal disease has been issued recently, the importance of measuring the pressure in the gastrointestinal tract has been increased. However, the conventional measurement methods of the pressure in the gastrointestinal tract cause the patients' pain and inconvenience as well as an inaccurate pressure measurement. In this paper, the pressure monitoring telemetry system has been designed and implemented for an accurate pressure measurement inside the gastrointestinal tract with minimizing pain and inconvenience. The pressure monitoring telemetry system is composed of a pressure measurement capsule and an external receiver. The capsule has been miniaturized into the same size of a vitamin tablet so that the capsule can be swallowed through the oral cavity. After the capsule acquires and encodes the pressure data in the gastrointestinal tract, the encoded pressure data are modulated by frequency shift keying (FSK) and transmitted with ultrahigh frequency (UHF) band signal to the outside of a body. The performance of the telemetry capsule for monitoring pressure in the gastrointestinal tract is demonstrated by the results of animal in-vivo experiments.
