SISTEMA SENSOR FISIOLÓGICO COM AUTENTICAÇÃO E VALIDAÇÃO AUTOMÁTICA POR MEIO DE UM PROTOCOLO DE IDENTIFICAÇÃO DE RADIO FREQUÊNCIA COM UM SISTEMA INTERROGADOR RFID INTEGRADO

摘要

This invention relates to a physiological sensor which acquires pre-programmed data from an electrode or an electrode array using Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology. The source of the sensor may be authenticated by means of a wireless interface between an RFID transponder affixed to the electrode array, and an RFID interrogator embedded in the patient interface cable. The criteria for use are then verified to ensure that they are met by the electrode array before beginning signal acquisition. If the criteria are not met, a message is provided to the user via the monitor.
