NFC Powered Implantable Temperature Sensor
Abstract:
Inductively powered 99% accurate implantable temperature sensor is designed, characterized and the findings are presented in this paper. The implantable sensors deliver a continuous temperature reading to external storage or readout devices via Near Field Communication interface. A 2.76μH rectangular inductive coil printed on a thin biocompatible plastic substrate is designed to establish the coupling link through NFC interface with external readout devices. A commercially available wide range temperature sensor chip is mounted along with the developed inductive coil on the same plastic substrate. For 50 samples, the received signal strength indicator, temperature accuracy and statistical distribution of measurement levels is investigated. Comparison of predetermined temperature in a controlled temperature and humidity chamber versus the temperature reading from the developed sensors proves a 99% accuracy.

Equipments Used to Measure Body Temperature
Glass-bulb Thermometer:
Glass-bulb thermometers are hollow glass tubes with a bulb tip containing liquid such as ethanol or mercury. Historically, glass bulb mercury thermometers were the standard device to measure body temperature. Today, mercury thermometers are prohibited in many countries due to the hazardous effects of mercury and the risk of exposure if the glass bulb breaks. In general,...
Temperature Measurement Sites
Oral: When assessing oral temperature, the thermometer tip should be placed under the tongue in the posterior sublingual pocket. It offers accurate readings and can be...
Assessing Body Temperature - Tympanic membrane
Step 1: Begin by practicing good hand hygiene to prevent the transmission of microorganisms.
Step 2: Turn on the thermometer and wait until the ready sign appears on the screen to ensure accurate measurement.
Step 3: Slide the probe cover in place to prevent cross-contamination.
Step 4: Instruct the patient to tilt their head to the side for comfort and check for cerumen...
Assessing Body Temperature - Temporal Artery
Step 1: Perform hand hygiene and don a fresh pair of gloves to prevent cross-infection and ensure patient safety.
Step 2: Explain the procedure to the patient to establish trust. Clear communication establishes trust with the patient, ensures they understand what to expect, promotes cooperation, and enhances comfort during the procedure.
Step 3: Assess the patient's...
