An apparatus for the determination and continuous monitoring of bladder epithelial oxygen (pbO2) which comprises, in combination, an introductory catheter (1) with an inflatable placement cuff (4) and an oxygen sensor, wherein the sensor is completely accommodated within the catheter (1) when not in use and, when the apparatus is placed within a patient's bladder, the sensor is adapted to be deployed so that the distal end (7) of the sensor passes through an open port (3) in the distal wall of the catheter (1) and extends beyond the tip (2) of the catheter (1) to rest against the wall of the bladder, and a method for the continuous monitoring of pbO2 using such apparatus.

Un appareil, servant à déterminer et contrôler en continu l'oxygène épithélial (pb02) de la vessie, comprend, en association, un cathéter d'introduction (1) pourvu d'un ballonnet gonflable (4) de mise en place et d'un détecteur d'oxygène. Le détecteur est totalement logé dans le cathéter (1) lorsqu'il n'est pas en utilisation, et, lorsque l'appareil est placé dans la vessie d'un patient, le détecteur est conçu pour se déployer de sorte que son extrémité distale (7) traverse un orifice ouvert de la paroi distale du cathéter (1) et s'étende au-delà de l'embout (2) du cathéter (1) afin de reposer contre la paroi de la vessie. Un procédé de contrôle en continu du pb02 à l'aide de cet appareil est également décrit.
