Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a life-threatening condition in which the patient deteriorates over time. PAH is defined as where a patient has high blood pressure in the pulmonary arteries that go from the heart to the lungs [135]. This is a result of the small arteries in the ...
For instance, to activate the electronic and chemical sensitization roles of metal nanopar- ticles or dichalcogenides, is often necessary to increase the operating temperature [30], compromising their low-power consumption and possibly lowering the device lifetime. For that reason, in recent years, ...
The disadvantage of this sensing technology is that they demonstrate poor repeatability and reproducibility, due to the random nature of the polymer, and have a relatively short sensor life, compared to MOX sensors [15]. Other sensor technologies included in the review were quartz crystal ...
