Sensors Based on Conducting Polymers for Measurement of Physiological Parameters

Sensors based on a conducting polymer, Polypyrrole (PPy), were fabricated to measure physiological variables used in clinical medicine as electrocardiography, impedance plethysmography and body temperature. The fabrication process was also described, which had the advantage of producing disposable or even reusable electrodes. The electrodes were fabricated as membranes or bulk elements according t...
