Abstract

A system for measuring pressure in the body comprising an implanted device for detecting internal absolute pressure, an external monitor providing barometric (atmospheric) pressure, an acoustic or radio telemetric system and a global positioning system (GPS). The barometric pressure is retrieved from a remote source such as an Internet weather web site or a database containing real-time barometric pressure data for various locations in the world by using the GPS
data. The gauge pressure is then derived by subtracting the barometric pressure from the absolute pressure.
