Embodiment Construction

[0059] exist figure 1 A schematic diagram of the signal transmission from the transmitter 112 to the receiver 114 via the body 110 is shown in . Transmitter 112 and receiver 114 here each have electrodes 116 which are applied directly to skin surface 118 or are arranged in close proximity to skin surface 118 . Transmitter 112 and receiver 114 each have an energy source 120 . The energy source 120 can include, for example, at least one energy store, such as a battery and / or accumulator, and / or an energy generator. In the transmitter 112 , a signal generator 122 is fed from the energy source 120 , which applies, for example, an alternating voltage to the electrodes 116 of the transmitter 112 . This produces an electric field 124 in the body 110 which can be used for in vivo near-field transmission. In addition to energy source 120 and electrodes 116 , receiver 114 may also have, for example, one or more amplifiers 123 in order to amplify and possibly fully or partially proces...

Abstract

The network (126) has two different network nodes (132) connected with a body (110) of a patient (128). The two network nodes have a medical function such as diagnostic function and medication function. The network nodes are designed to directly communicate with one another via the body of the patient and exchange data and/or instructions. The network nodes include a temperature sensor (140), blood pressure sensor (142), sensor (144) for detecting glucose, lactate, carbon dioxide, boric acid and metaboric acid and another sensor (146) for detecting bodily functions i.e. kidney function. An independent claim is also included for a medical system i.e. operation system and/or intensive-medical system, including a communication device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a network for monitoring bodily functions of a patient, a network node for use in such a network, and a medical system which can be associated with the network according to the invention. Such networks, network nodes and medical systems are used in particular for the care of patients with chronic diseases and / or critically ill patients, in the case of which several bodily functions must be monitored and / or influenced simultaneously. Background technique [0002] In the clinical field as well as in private healthcare, there are many situations in which a system is required which can monitor the complex interplay of individual bodily functions of a patient and possibly influence them in a targeted manner. For example, care for patients with chronic diseases, such as diabetics, can be involved here. Critically ill patients, for example critically ill patients known to have an increased risk of infarction, can also be cared for in...
