Bandage that heals wounds

‎Experts are creating novel, previously unimagined items in the modern day. In this regard, specialists have created a bandage that can treat a wound that is a very long time ago. By producing mild electricity, it helps the wound to heal rapidly. It was created by Stanford University specialists.


The hydrogel and electrical circuit used to make this belt have produced positive results. A two-layer strip, on which all the circuits are built, has been put on top of a 100-micron-thin polymer layer by Jian Chenglai and his colleagues. It is followed straight from the wound by a flexible hydrogel layer made of hydrogel. ‎ 


‎Importantly, it also incorporates a biosensor that records electrical activity and temperature (impedance). The impedance rises and the wound's temperature starts to fall as the wound gets bigger. Now, if the wound healing process is sluggish, electricity is automatically released. ‎ 


This accelerates the healing of existing wounds and boosts the production of new skin cells. Along with this, the wound's germs also begin to perish. Installing a small radio antenna on the strip will allow information to be sent to the smartphone app. The bandage won't need to be opened repeatedly. The hydrogel immediately splits if the strip is heated to 40 degrees. ‎ 


‎Although the rate of new skin development increased by 50% and the healing rate improved by 25% when it was tested on wounds, it will take some time to prepare on a commercial scale. Experts claim that more sensors can be added, such as ones that measure pH, metabolite rates, and biomarkers. The automated action of the smart strip heals injuries and transmits information to a smartphone. Diabetes sufferers will benefit greatly from it. ‎‎
