A comprehensive and continuous monitoring of human health requires highly integrated wearable and comfortable sensing devices. To address this need, we propose a low-cost electronic fabric-enabled multifunctional flexible sensing integration platform that includes a flexible pressure sensor for monitoring postural pressure, a humidity sensor for monitoring the humidity of the skin surface, and a flexible temperature sensor for visualizing the ambient temperature around the human body. Thanks to the unique rough surface texture, hierarchical structure, and robust electromechanical features of the MXene-modified nonwoven fabrics, the flexible pressure sensor can achieve a monitoring sensitivity of 1529.1 kPa~(-1) and a pressure range of 150 kPa, which meets the demand for human pressure detection. In addition, the unique porous structure of the fabric and the stacked multilayer structure of MXene enable the humidity sensor to exhibit extremely high monitoring sensitivity, even through clothing, and still be able to detect the humidity on the skin surface.Temperature sensors based on screen-printed thermochromic liquid crystals enable visual monitoring in the range of 0℃–65℃. Through further integration with flexible printed circuit board circuits, we demonstrate a proof-of-concept device that enables real-time monitoring of human physiological information such as physical pressure, humidity, and ambient temperature environment, suggesting that the device provides an excellent platform for the development of commercially viable wearable healthcare monitors.展开更多

Methods: From March 1988 to February 1998, 30 patients with long bone defects over 6 cm in length received vascularized fibular graft including a monitoring island flap in our department to monitor the blood circulation of the fibulae.

Surgical exploration was performed timely and the blood supply was recovered instantaneously. All the bone defects were healed at 6 months postoperatively. After 4 years of follow up, all the grafted fibulae were thickened and were just like tibiae. Conclusions: A monitoring island flap is a satisfactory method for repairing large defects of the long bones and a reliable method for assessing the vascular status of the grafted fibulae.展开更多

文摘Metabolism,transpiration,and invasion of pathogens during the storage and transportation of fruits can lead to significant waste and even food safety issues.Therefore,real-time,rapid,and accurate non-destructive monitoring of physiological information during the storage of fruits and vegetables to assess fruit freshness is crucial.Herein,we engineered a degradable and multifunctional humidity sensing film for monitoring fruit freshness.The film is fabricated through the co-assembly of bagasse cellulose nanocrystals(CNC),okra polysaccharides(OPs),silver nanowires(Ag NWs),and phytic acid(PA),utilizing dynamic hydrogen and phosphate bonds.This innovative design endows the CNC/OPs/PA/Ag NWs(COPA)composite film with outstanding mechanical properties,water resistance,low water vapor permeability,antibacterial,degradability,and moisture-sensing ability.Notably,the proposed COPA humidity sensor exhibits high linearity(R^(2)=0.994),ultralow hysteresis(1.24%),and 32 days of operational stability across a 35%–98%relative humidity(RH)range,enabling precise freshness monitoring during fruit storage.Significantly,the COPA film prolonged the shelf-life of packaged fruit when compared to conventional PE film packaging.This research establishes a foundational framework for next-generation smart sensors in food quality management and biomedical monitoring applications.
文摘Background:After cardiac surgery,central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) and serum lactate concentration are often used to guide resuscitation;however,neither are completely reliable indicators of global tissue hypoxia.This observational study aimed to establish whether the ratio between the veno-arterial carbon dioxide and the arterial-venous oxygen differences (P(v-a)CO2/C(a-v)O2) could predict whether patients would respond to resuscitation by increasing oxygen delivery (DO2).Methods:We selected 72 patients from a cohort of 290 who had undergone cardiac surgery in our institution between January 2012 and August 2014.The selected patients were managed postoperatively on the Intensive Care Unit,had a normal ScvO2,elevated serum lactate concentration,and responded to resuscitation by increasing DO2 by 〉10%.As a consequence,48 patients responded with an increase in oxygen consumption (VO2) while VO2 was static or fell in 24.Results:At baseline and before resuscitative intervention in postoperative cardiac surgery patients,a P(v-a)CO2/C(a-v)O2 ratio ≥1.6 mmHg/ml predicted a positive VO2 response to an increase in DO2 of〉1 0% with a sensitivity of 68.8% and a specificity of 87.5%.Conclusions:P(v-a)CO2/C(a-v)O2 ratio appears to be a reliable marker of global anaerobic metabolism and predicts response to DO2 challenge.Thus,patients likely to benefit from resuscitation can be identified promptly,the P(v-a)CO2/C(a-v)O2 ratio may,therefore,be a useful resuscitation target.

文摘Flexible pressure sensors capable of monitoring diverse physiological signals and body movements have garnered tremendous attention in wearable electronic devices.Thereinto,high constant sensitivity over a wide pressure range combined with breathability,biocompatibility,biodegradability is pivotal for manufacturing of reliable pressure sensors in practical sensing applications.In this work,inspired by the multilayered structure of skin epidermis,we propose and demonstrate a multi-attribute wearable piezoresistive pressure sensor consisting of multilayered gradient conductive poly(ε-caprolactone)nanofiber membranes composites.In response to externally applied pressure,a layer-by-layer current path is activated inside the multilayered membranes composites,leading to the most salient sensing performance of high constant sensitivity of 33.955 kPa^(−1) within the pressure range of 0–80 kPa.The proposed pressure sensor also exhibits a fast response–relaxation time,a low detection limit,excellent stability,which can be successfully used to measure human physiological signals.Lastly,an integrated sensor array system that can locate objects’positions is constructed and applied to simulate sitting posture monitoring.These results indicate that the proposed pressure sensor holds great potential in health monitoring and wearable electronic devices.
