| description | The skin, being the largest organ in the human body, plays a vital role in shielding internal organs from external physical and chemical factors. However, skin damage caused by various factors such as injuries, surgeries, diabetes, or burns can lead to wounds that diminish the skin's protective function. Monitoring essential physiological parameters like temperature, moisture, and pH is crucial to facilitate antibiotic treatment, remote physician monitoring, patient comfort, cost reduction, and prevention of hospital-acquired infections. To this end, innovative wound coverings made of biological materials like gelatin, carboxymethyl chitosan, and titanium nanoparticles have been developed, mainly for hospital and pediatric applications. These wound coverings come equipped with sensors to monitor temperature, pH, and moisture and are suitable for pediatric hospitals where children experience difficulty in wound healing due to their sensitive skin. The temperature monitoring feature allows physicians to accurately assess the wound's temperature, detect potential infections, and take prompt actions. These wound coverings can significantly enhance wound treatment for patients, as real-time monitoring of physiological parameters enables informed decision-making by physicians, leading to better therapeutic outcomes. Furthermore, the use of these wound coverings can minimize the risk of hospital-acquired infections. Their adaptability and flexibility make them ideal for various wound types and sizes, ensuring patient comfort and compliance with the treatment plan. In conclusion, the development of innovative and flexible wound coverings using biological materials and equipped with sensors represents a significant breakthrough in wound management. The use of these wound coverings has the potential to revolutionize wound care and improve patient outcomes, particularly in pediatric hospitals where wound healing is often challenging. |
