Publication number: 20210169358Abstract: A pressure sensor configured for biological pressure measurement at a distal end portion of an elongated member comprises a dissolvable hydrophilic material coated on a surface of the pressure sensor. A guide wire for biological pressure measurement may include a tube extending along a longitudinal axis of the guide wire; and a pressure sensor for biological pressure measurement, at least a portion of the pressure sensor being mounted within the tube. The pressure sensor comprises a pressure sensor membrane facing a top side of the tube. A circumferential wall of the tube includes at least six openings: a first distal opening, a second distal opening located on a right side of the tube, a third distal opening located on a left side of the tube, a first proximal opening, a second proximal opening located on a right side of the tube, and a third proximal opening located on a left side of the tube.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 17, 2020Publication date: June 10, 2021Applicant: ST.

Patent number: 9763622Abstract: A sensor element comprises a sensor section comprising a sensor unit configured to measure a physiological variable or any other signal in a living body and to generate a sensor signal in response to the variable or other signal, and a bond section comprising contact members configured to electrically connect at least one signal transmitting microcable. The bond section is coated with an electrically insulating material and the sensor unit is left uncoated. The sensor element may further comprise an intermediate section between the sensor section and the bond section. The intermediate section includes electric connection lines configured to connect the contact members to the sensor unit. The intermediate section is also coated with the electrically insulating material.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2016Date of Patent: September 19, 2017Assignee: ST.
