Abstract

A sensor system for dialysis applications includes a plurality of pressure sensors, wherein each pressure sensor can be provided as an LC type sensor, and/or an RLC type sensor. Each sensor among the plurality of pressure sensors can be inductively coupled with a respective antenna among a plurality of antennas for the wireless transmission of pressure data. A dialysis machine is generally connected to the plurality of antennas, wherein the plurality of pressure sensors monitors pressure during operation of the dialysis machine to generate pressure data that is wirelessly transmitted to at least one antenna among the plurality of antennas.
