Wireless Personal Communications Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

The paper proposes a system for an early warning on the prosthesis performance, in particular in terms of micro- displacements of the implant-prostheses connection, enabling actions to prevent fatal damages to the structure. The system includes a sensor for micro-displacement to be inserted in the prosthesis volume, with embedded wireless communications capabilities. Key elements of the system are the system enabling the wireless transmission of the recorded data and the molecular and biochemical approaches to unravel possible metabolic alterations. For these two elements, the paper presents and discusses several solutions.
