ABSTRACT:
Improvements in catheters, particularly of the electrooptical type employing light energy and detect and measure body variables, such as blood pressure and flow and the composition of body fluid. Catheter head and medical instrument structures are provided which may be easily fabricated at low cost to receive and hold light pipes and to contain or define optical components, such as reflectors, lenses and the like, to permit their use in detecting such variables while the instrument or catheter is located in the body. Improvements are also provided in the structures of instrument capsules adapted to be swallowed and allowed to pass through the digestive tract for the purpose of detecting body variables such as the composition of body fluid and tissue.
