Wireless body sensor design for intra-vaginal temperature monitoring
Sensor nodes are small devices able to collect and retrieve
sensorial data. The use of these sensors for medical purposes
offers valuable contributions to improve patients’ healthcare, both
for diagnosis and therapeutics monitoring. An important and
common parameter used on healthcare diagnosis is the body
temperature. It is monitored on several matters related with
gynecological and obstetrics issues but, usually it is measure at
the skin surface. Then, this paper proposes the design concepts of
a new intra-body sensor for long-term intra-vaginal temperature
collection. The embedded IEEE 802.15.4 communication module
allows the integration of this sensor in wireless sensor networks
for remote data access and monitoring. It is presented the sensor
architecture, the construction of the corresponding testbed, and its
performance evaluation. This sensor may be used on several
applications, including fertile and ovulation period detection, and
preterm labor prevention
