摘要:
The invention relates to an ingestible, implantable or wearable medical devicecomprising a microarray having a bioactive agent capable of interacting with adisease marker biological analyte; a reservoir which comprises at least onetherapeutic agent and a microchip comprising a microarray scanning devicecapableof obtaining physical parameter data of an interaction between the diseasemarkerbiological analyte with the bioactive agent; a biometric recognition devicecapable ofcomparing the physical parameter data with an analyte interaction profile; andaninterface device capable of facilitating communications between the microarrayscanning device, biometric recognition device and a therapeutic agentreleasingdevice. The medical device is capable of detecting an analyte in a bodilyfluidcomprising at least one microneedle capable of obtaining a sample of a bodilyfluid, amicrochannel through which the sample flows and is in fluid communication withtheat least one microneedle, and an interface device.
