Abstract

AbstractRecently, addressing various wounds, ranging from skin injuries to pressure and chronic ulcers, has necessitated a more detailed approach to wound condition monitoring aimed at enhancing the patient's quality of life. Although most available wound dressings offer protection and promote the regeneration of wound lesions, they fail to monitor wound progression. To meet this need, this study introduces a pioneering solution: a wireless, battery‐free, optoelectronic diagnostic sensor seamlessly integrated into a colorimetric, pH‐sensitive wound dressing, designed to significantly enhance patient quality of life through improved wound care. Curcumin‐polycaprolactone (C‐PCL) dressing protect the wounds, promote cell regeneration, and possess antimicrobial properties. In addition, the dressing exhibits colorimetric pH‐monitoring capabilities across different wound conditions, enabling individuals without specialized knowledge to assess the status of their wounds. The core innovation lies in the integration of a green light‐emitting diode (LED) and photodiode, which meticulously evaluates color changes from yellow to red of colorimetric dressing, enhance the precision of this user‐friendly colorimetric diagnosis strategy. The integration of wireless battery‐free systems facilitates quantitative and real‐time monitoring of wound data in patients without inconvenience. These innovations will pave the way for rapid wound status evaluation, ensuring timely interventions and optimized care for deteriorating wound conditions.
