Specific embodiments of the present invention are further described below.
The basic principle of the pressure monitoring device used in the invention is piezoresistive effect, when the material monitors pressure, the device is deformed, so that the resistance of the device is changed, and the device is converted into response stress. The materials used by the device are all flexible materials, and the device has excellent bending and stretching characteristics and extremely high biocompatibility.
(1) Preparation of pressure-sensitive materials
PDMS (polydimethylsiloxane) has good biocompatibility, but is itself an insulating material. In order to make it have good and stable conductivity, multi-walled carbon nanotube conductive nanomaterial is added to PDMS. And (2) carrying out ultrasonic treatment by using a cell crusher to obtain a dispersion liquid of the multi-walled carbon nano tube, fully mixing the dispersion liquid with a PDMS monomer dispersion liquid prepared by ultrasonic treatment, and adding a curing agent to form a conductive mixture, thereby finally obtaining the pressure sensitive material with conductivity. The process for preparing the pressure sensitive material is generally as shown in figure 1.
(2) Preparation of pressure sensitive film and microstructure thereof
In order to improve the sensitivity and the monitoring range of the sensitive material, the pressure sensitive material is used for preparing the pressure sensitive film with the pyramid microstructure. When pressure acts on the pressure sensitive film, the deformation generated by the pyramid-shaped microstructure is the largest, the change of the measured resistance value is the most obvious, and the sensitivity of the sensor is improved.
During preparation, firstly, a pyramid microstructure with the side length of 50 micrometers is etched on a silicon wafer by using a wet etching technology, the conductive mixture obtained in the step (1) is poured on the silicon wafer with the microstructure, a conductive pressure sensitive film 5 with the thickness of 0.5mm is prepared by using a spin coater, and the surface of the conductive pressure sensitive film is provided with the pyramid microstructure 51, as shown in fig. 2.
As shown in fig. 3, the pressure-sensitive film 5 and the upper and lower inner electrodes 1 and 6 form a sandwich structure, the inner electrode is, for example, a copper foil with a thickness of 25 μm, and the middle layer is the pressure-sensitive film 5. When pressure is applied, the sandwich structure can be bent, the resistance of the pressure sensitive film 5 in the middle layer is greatly changed under the action of pressure, and the pressure value can be obtained through corresponding electrical signal measurement.
(3) Microstructure surface treatment
Gold plating is performed on the outer surface of the pyramidal microstructure 51. Electron beam evaporation may be used. On one hand, the gold plating treatment can improve the conductivity of the device and strengthen the contact conduction between the thin film and the electrode; on the other hand, the viscoelastic property between the film and the inner electrode can be reduced, and the response speed of the device is accelerated. Preferably, 10nm of chromium metal is plated first, and then 50nm of gold metal is plated, so that better attachment characteristics can be obtained.
(4) Device package
The outer surface of the device is wrapped and packaged by adopting an FEP material to form a flexible wrapping and packaging layer 4, so that the device can stably work in a liquid environment and has good biocompatibility. The FEP flexible wrapping and packaging layer 4 also has good flexibility, and the Young modulus is smaller than that of human muscles, so that muscle tissues cannot be scratched. The sandwich structure is arranged between flexible packaging layers 4 made of FEP materials, circular through holes are dug out on the flexible packaging layers 4 and filled with conductive silver paste 2, inner electrodes 1 and 6 of the sensor are led out to the outer side and connected with outer electrodes 2 and 7 (such as micron-sized conductive copper adhesive tapes) arranged on the outer side of the flexible packaging layers 4. The pressure sensitive film 5 and the inner electrodes 1, 6 can be sealed by bonding the FEP material on both sides together to form a closed cavity using a hot press. A cross-sectional view of the package is shown in fig. 4.
A layer of parylene is deposited on the outer surface of the pressure sensor which is integrally packaged by FEP materials, so that the whole device has good biocompatibility and can be implanted into the cranium for pressure measurement. The parylene is a polymer with excellent performance, has strong electrical insulation, chemical inertness, permeation resistance and hydrolysis resistance, has good biocompatibility, and is an ideal biocompatible packaging material.
All the materials used are flexible, so that the integrally packaged pressure sensor can be bent at a large angle. In one embodiment, the pressure sensor is packaged in a ring shape, as shown in FIG. 5, with a length of only 7mm, and can be placed on the inner or outer wall of the medical rubber catheter as desired.

In clinical indexes, the <2.00KPa is in a normal physiological range, the KPa is 2.00 KPa-2.70 KPa and belongs to slight intracranial pressure increase, the KPa is 2.70 KPa-5.50 KPa and belongs to moderate intracranial pressure increase, when the intracranial pressure change exceeds 5.50KPa, the intracranial pressure increase belongs to moderate intracranial pressure increase, and emergency treatment of a clinician is needed. When the device of the present invention is tested according to the standard, it can be seen from fig. five that the device has good linear monitoring characteristics within 0-10 KPa, and meets the use requirements as an intracranial pressure monitoring device.
Response characteristics and pressure resolution:

The response characteristic of a weight removal experiment detection device is utilized, a button cell with the weight of 2.03g (the diameter of the bottom surface is 11.52mm) is placed, the flexible pressure sensor can obviously sense the pressure, the calculated pressure value is about 195Pa, and the standard for judging the intracranial pressure rise in the existing clinical medical detection on the opposite side can meet the monitoring standard. Meanwhile, the pressure response time of the flexible pressure sensor is checked, the LCR bridge is used for testing in an MED (90 ms sampling time) mode, the response time of the sensor is less than 200ms, and the medical measurement condition can be completely met.
