Novel Non-Intrusive Trans-Dermal Remote Wireless Micro-Fluidic Monitoring System Applied to Continuous Glucose and Lactate Assays for Casualty Care and Combat Readiness Assessment

Abstract

We present results on both the bio-medical engineering development of a non-intrusive, wireless, microfluidic physiological monitoring and remote transmission field system, and its performance measuring continuous glucose and lactate concentrations in the interstitial fluid of rats subjected both to glucose-stress tests, and to hemorrhagic shock. These directly address the two symposium topics of Monitoring of physiological parameters and measurement of vital signs in the field and of Medical surveillance in a command environment, remote monitoring and guidance of field personnel .
