Science Fiction Network, October 26 (Liu Yazhu) It is reported that in order to solve the important medical problem of chronic wounds, a new type of electronically enhanced bandage called "VeCare" is about to come out.

It is understood that the development of this new type of "bandage" is the researchers of the National University of Singapore Kapi. The smart can be equipped with devices such as electrochemical immunosensors, where the chip supports battery-charged power and can be used multiple times.

It is understood that this new type of bandage can collect data in 15 minutes. Wirelessly delivered in real time to the doctor's device via an application, the doctor can determine whether the patient is infected by reference from the CHRONIC WOUND PH value transmitted back in the bandage. Therefore, the wound can be assessed in real time without removing the bandage, which not only avoids re-infection of the wound, but also allows the medical staff to treat the problem more quickly and accurately.

It is reported that the research team has successfully used the technology to do clinical trials in some patients, and is currently further developing the technology to prepare for large-scale production.
