  • Publication number: 20190133473
    Abstract: Systems, devices and methods that can be used to obtain objective pressure measurements in a body cavity using one or more monitoring bladders mounted on a catheter. The monitoring bladders may be adapted to connect or be connected to a system capable of providing objective pressure measurements indicative of the compressive forces acting on the one or more monitoring bladder in the body cavity. The body cavity may include, for example, the rectum, esophagus, stomach, intestine, colon, reproductive tract, urethra, oronasopharnygeal tract, etc.

  • Publication number: 20080287752
    Abstract: Physiological parameters are monitored from within an ear canal. A sensor module, which is mountable within the ear canal, includes at least one sensor operable to sense the physiological parameters and to generate signals based on the sensed physiological parameters. A processor, which is in communication with the sensor module, processes the signals from the at least one sensor and generates data related to the physiological parameters.
