Abstract
A pressure sensor has been used to measure temperature concurrently. We have designed, and characterized the measurement of temperature from the same sensor to allow simultaneous monitoring of intracranial temperature and pressure. The temperature measurement has a sensitivity of 85.08 mV/°C across the measurement range 20-45 °C. The time constant of the temperature sensor is 150 ms. We have evaluated the accuracy of the temperature measurement and the long term drift of 13 sensors over 28 days. The mean difference of the temperature measurements from the reference measurements was less than 0.2 °C.
