An implantable biosensor System is disclosed for determining Ievels of cardiac markers in a patient to aid in the diagnosis, determination of the severity and mana ment of cardiovascular diseases. The sensor (10) includes nanowire sensor elements (20) having a biological recognition element attached to a nanowire transducer that specifically binds to the cardiac marker being measured. Each of the sensor elements is associated with a protective member that prevents the sensor element from interacting with the surrounding environment. At a selected time, the protective member may be disabled, thereby allowing the sensor element to begin sensing signals within a Iiving body.

L'invention concerne un système de biocapteurs implantable lequel est adapté pour déterminer les niveaux de marqueurs cardiaques chez un patient pour aider au diagnostic, à la détermination de la gravité et la gestion de maladies cardio-vasculaires. Le biocapteur comprend des éléments capteurs à nanofil présentant un élément de reconnaissance biologique fixé à un transducteur à nanofil lequel se lie spécifiquement au marqueur cardiaque mesuré. Chacun des éléments capteurs est associé à un élément protecteur empêchant que l'élément capteur n'ait une interaction avec l'environnement périphérique. A un temps sélectionné, l'élément protecteur peut être invalidé, permettant ainsi à l'élément capteur de commencer à détecter des signaux à l'intérieur d'un corps vivant.
