Subject Implantable Systems
Programme summary
The goal of the research, undertaken within the Healthy Aims project, is to develop a fully implantable system without any external parts. With this in mind, Researchers have developed a safe implantable battery and improved electrodes that provide a better-quality sound and are easier for the nervous system to adapt to. The Activity monitor is one of numerous devices, developed by 25 partners from 10 countries participating in the Healthy Aims project. The Activity Monitor is now being used for the medical monitoring of patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases, diabetes or obesity.
