This invention is an implant apparatus for measuring a fluid flow in the body of a subject, including a stent (24) having a generally cylindrical radial outer wall, and a central lumen (34). A flow parameter sensor (28, 30) is fixed to the stent, and measures a parameter relating to a rate of blood flow through the stent (24). A transmitter transmits signals responsive to the measured parameter to a receiver outside the body.

Cette invention porte sur un implant permettant de mesurer un écoulement de fluide dans le corps d'un sujet, cet implant comprenant un extenseur (24) à paroi externe, radiale, généralement cylindrique et un lumen central (34). Un capteur (28, 30) de paramètres d'écoulement est fixé à l'extenseur et mesure un paramètre par rapport à un débit d'écoulement sanguin passant dans l'extenseur (24). Un émetteur envoie à un récepteur situé à l'extérieur du corps des signaux réagissant au paramètre mesuré.
