Abstract
By the use of sensor transponder technology, the therapy of heart failure can be significantly improved. Through continuous monitoring of the heart an optimal adaption of drug dosage is possible. First, the state of the art and examples of existing solutions are outlined. A novel sensor transponder system is presented that enables high read range and small antenna dimensions and thus allows direct implantation into the heart.
