Embodiment Construction

[0046] Embodiments disclosed herein relate to devices and methods for monitoring and processing biological tissue with substrates implementing sensors. Embodiments disclosed herein are not limited to treating or monitoring a particular type of tissue or wound, and indeed, the sensor-implementing techniques disclosed herein are broadly applicable to any type of treatment that may benefit from a sensor-implementing substrate. Some embodiments utilize sensors and data acquisition that healthcare providers rely on to make diagnoses and make patient management decisions.

[0047] Some embodiments disclosed herein relate to the use of sensors mounted on or embedded within substrates configured for processing intact and damaged human or animal tissue. Such sensors can gather information about surrounding tissue and transmit such information to a computing device or caregiver for further processing. In some embodiments, these sensors can be attached to the skin anywhere on the body, ...

Abstract

Devices and methods for encapsulating a portion of a wound dressing with a coating are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method can comprise positioning a substantially flexible wound contact layer of the wound dressing on a perforated plate. The wound contact layer can include a first side supporting a plurality of electronic components protruding from a surface of the first side and a second side opposite the first side. The second side can be substantially smooth. The method can further comprise applying a vacuum to the wound contact layer through perforations in the perforated plate to hold the wound contact layer against the perforated plate and coating the wound contact layer with a coating.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority to UK provisional application number 1816838.5, filed 16 October 2018; the disclosure of this provisional application is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. [0003] background technical field [0004] Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, systems, and methods for treating tissue through sensor-enabled monitoring in communication with various treatment areas. Background technique [0005] Almost all fields of medicine could benefit from improved information about the state of the tissue, organ, or system being treated, especially if such information is collected in real-time during processing, without the use of sensor data acquisition and still routinely Perform many types of processing. Rather, such processing relies on visual inspection by a caregiver or other limited means rather than quantitative sensor data. For example, in the case of wound ma...
