Abstract

Wound infection is a common clinical problem. Traditional detection methods can not provide infection early warning information in time. With the development of flexible electronics, flexible wearable devices have been widely used in the field of intelligent monitoring. Here, we describe the development of a soft wound infection monitoring system with pH sensors and temperature sensors. The measurement range of pH was 4–10, the fitting accuracy was 99.8%, and the response time was less than 6 s. The temperature sensor array showed good accuracy and short response times in the range of 30 °C to 40 °C. A series of in vitro tests and the use of a rat model of Staphylococcus aureus infection confirmed that this flexible detection system can monitor the pH and temperature changes occurring in the early stage of infection, which provides an effective reference for clinical application.
