Contributor French, P.J. (mentor) Faculty Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science Department Microelectronics & Computer Engineering Programme Electronic Instrumentation Date 2011-02-24 Abstract Optical sensor has been introduced to detect anastomotic leakage (AL) in an early stage. AL is a most feared complication in anastomosis operation, because there is no tool that can detect this effectively. Therefore, oxygen and carbon dioxide have been introduced for constant monitoring of the condition of anastomosis. This thesis will represent the working principle of these two gas sensors and the wireless protocol that has been used for constant monitoring of the health condition.
