Implantable devices are becoming more prevalent as monitoring or treatments are needed for patients with chronic diseases such as heart failure, diabetes and cancer. Conventional implantable devices are battery-powered, but these batteries can suffer from a short lifespan, bulky size, or leakage hazards. This authored book explores the energy harvesting technologies emerging as alternatives to battery-powered devices. With chapters on kinetic energy, thermal energy, photovoltaic energy, biofuel energy, RF energy and wireless power transfer in implantable applications, the authors demonstrate how these technologies can harvest sufficient energy from the host human body which can be used to power implantable devices.
This book details the current availability of implantable devices used in modern therapy and treatment, and how to manage and control the quality and risk during design, manufacture, and validation. Energy harvesting in different modern biomedical implantable applications is discussed and illustrated with examples which outline the benefits and drawbacks of energy harvesters used to power implantable devices.
