Abstract
A system, method and apparatus monitoring, recording and reporting physiological data includes an intravenous detection device in communication with at least one central processor. The intravenous detection device is configured to monitor at least one physiological measurement and report the measurement to the central processor via a communication medium. The central processor may store the data or immediately transmit the data to an authorized recipient. The central processor may also analyze the data to determine what further action should be taken, including immediate interventional action, such as, for example, defibrillation. The detection devices are preferably micro- or nano-level devices that are capable of flowing freely through the venous system of a host. The detection devices include a suitable transducer, an optional memory and a transceiver, and are preferably introduced into a host by injection of a fluid including a suspension of the detection devices. Measurements to be taken by the detection devices may include at least one of effective blood vessel diameter, fluid pressure, blood sugar level, cholesterol level, heart rate, heart rhythm, presence of a tumor, white blood cell count and visual image data.
