<p>Measurement systemcomprising a sensor wire provided, at its distal end, with a physiological condition sensor to measure a physiological condition inside a patient, and to provide measured data to an external device, the measurement system comprises a transceiver unit adapted to be connected to the proximal end of the sensor wire, and a communication unitarranged in connection with the external device. Thetransceiver unit is adapted to communicate,by a communication signal,with thecommunication unit, in order to transfer measured data to the external device. The communication signal, including the measured data, is generated by the transceiver unit and transferred as an output signaland thecommunicationunit is arranged to be connected to a standard input/output connector of the external device and to communicate with the external device in accordance with an established standard, or in accordance with relevant parts of an established standard, e.g. BP22or USB. The measurement system further comprises a physical optical communication link arranged between thetransceiver unit and the communication unit, wherein thecommunication signal is an optical signal transferred by theopticalcommunication link. The transceiver unit also comprises an energy means adapted to energize the sensor, the transceiver unit and also the optical communication link.</p> |
