Abstract:
1. A system comprising: a flexible antenna comprising a transmit loop and a receive loop, the transmit loop being configured for transmitting an energizing signal to a sensor implanted in a body of a person, the receive loop being configured for receiving, responsive to the energizing signal, a sensor signal from the sensor, the sensor signal being adapted to represent data that is from the sensor; a patient control device that is configured to respond to a control command received from the person by causing the transmit loop to transmit the energizing signal; a patient device in communication with at least one of the patient control device or the flexible antenna, the patient device being configured for transmitting over a network a data file comprising the data represented by the sensor signal to a server that is remotely located to the patient device; and an access device in communication with the server, the access device being configured for displaying the data represented by the sensor signal to a second person that is different than the person in which the sensor is implanted, wherein the transmit loop comprises a capacitor for tuning the transmit loop.
