Implantable and Biodegradable Smart Textiles for Continuous Limb and Gastrointestinal Motility Monitoring
University of Electronic Science and Technology of China · National Engineering Research Center of Electromagnetic Radiation Control Materials
Abstract
Abstract The thriving of internet of things and mobile healthcare requires a myriad of sensing devices for continuous implantable and wearable monitoring over extended periods. However, lack of biocompatibility and degradability has become a bottleneck for rehabilitation and close‐loop diagnosis and therapy as well as in‐vivo biomonitoring platforms. Herein, an implantable and biodegradable smart textile (IBST) composed of natural loofah sponge is reported, carbon ink, and silver nanoparticles. Combining finite element analysis and experimental characterization, optimal sensing performance is achieved, featuring high sensitivity (4.023 [kPa] −1 ) and good linearity (R 2 = 0.995) across a wide sensing range…
