Abstract

An implantable biomedical sensor (1) is disclosed which features a novel electrofluidic design based on dedicated measurement chambers (2, 3) which are closed up by respective membranes (4, 5), which are permeable to water molecules and optionally also to typical ions which are found in the human interstitial fluid (ISF). Through this concept, the sensor (1) can perform electrical measurements in the respective chamber (2, 3) and thereby collect data which allow conclusions to be drawn about the amount of water and ions present in the ISF surrounding the sensor (1). In other words, such a sensor (1) enables electrical monitoring of an electrolyte status and/or a hydration status of the patient wearing the implanted sensor (1) in his tissue.
