DEVICE FOR ACQUIRING PHYSIOLOGICAL VARIABLES MEASURED IN A BODY

A system includes: an aortic pressure sensor configured to measure aortic blood pressure of an individual; a distal sensor configured to measure a parameter in a blood vessel; a receiver configured to receive both (i) a signal representing the measured aortic blood pressure value, and (ii) a signal representing the parameter, the receiver comprising a display configured to display data that is based on at least the measured aortic blood pressure value and the measured parameter; and a communication interface configured to (i) receive a signal representing the measured aortic blood pressure value from the aortic pressure sensor via a wired connection, (ii) provide a signal representing the measured aortic blood pressure value to a monitoring device via a wired connection, and (iii) send a signal representing the measured aortic blood pressure value to the receiver via a wireless connection.
