A method comprises delivering a first implant to an orifice of a chamber of a heart, anchoring the first implant at the orifice, delivering a sensor device to the orifice, and coupling the sensor device to the first implant.

A sensor implant system comprises a shunt implant comprising a central flow portion configured to maintain an opening through a tissue wall and a sensor implant device. The sensor implant device comprises a shunt body configured to fit at least partially within the central flow portion of the shunt implant and a sensor device coupled to the shunt body.

A sensor implant device comprises a sensor body, a sensor component, and one or more anchoring features coupled to the sensor body and configured to anchor within a blood flow pathway or left atrial appendage.

A sensor implant system comprises a shunt body comprising a central flow portion configured for placement at least partially within an opening of a tissue wall and the sensor implant system comprises a sensor implant device comprising a sensor body. The sensor implant device is configured for placement within the opening of the tissue wall and between the central flow portion of the shunt body and an inner wall of the opening of the tissue wall.

A sensor implant device comprises a sensor body, at least a first sensor component, and one or more anchoring features coupled to the sensor device and configured to anchor within a tissue wall. The one or more anchoring features are configured to assume an unexpanded form during delivery and configured to expand into the tissue wall.

A stent apparatus, system, and method that senses wall shear stress by measuring fluid flow at localized areas within the stent, that processes measured information through an integrated circuit, and selectively sends power to mechanically controllable stent surfaces which results in localized geometric changes. In various embodiments the stent apparatus, system, and method sends data to outside the body in real time.

A device for treating an aneurysm of a human or mammal patient, wherein the aneurysm may self-expand, leading to the aneurysm bursting with high risk for death of the human or mammal patient. The device comprising an implantable member adapted to be placed in connection with the outside of a blood vessel having the aneurysm, and to exercise a pressure on the outside of the blood vessel having the aneurysm, a measuring device or sensor for measuring or sensing an expansion of the aneurysm, and a pressure regulator adapted to regulate the exercised pressure on the outside of the blood vessel having the aneurysm.
