摘要:
A sensor including an array of pins, a sensing element, a control module, and a physical layer module. The array of pins or needles is configured to be inserted in tissue of a patient. The sensing element is separate from the array of pins or needles and is configured to (i) detect a first parameter of the tissue, and (ii) generate a first signal indicative of the first parameter. The control module is configured to (i) receive the first signal, (ii) monitor a second parameter of the tissue based on a second signal received from the array of pins or needles, and (ii) generate a third signal based on the first signal and the second parameter, where the third signal is indicative of a level of decompression of a nerve of the patient. The physical layer module is configured to wirelessly transmit the third signal from the sensor to a console interface module or a nerve integrity monitoring device.
