Stretchable Capacitive Pressure Sensing Sleeve Deployable onto Catheter Balloons towards Continuous Intra-Abdominal PressureMonitoring

Intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) is closely correlated with intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) diagnoses, indicating the need for continuous monitoring. Early intervention for IA Hand ACS has been proven to reduce the rate of morbidity. However, the current IAP monitoring method is a tedious process with a long calibration time for a single time point measurement. Thus, there is a need for an efficient and continuous way of measuring IAP. Herein, a stretchable capacitive pressure sensor with controlled micro structures embedded into a cylindrical elastomeric mold, fabricated as a pressure sensing sleeve, is presented.
