New smart bandages for burn victims and others

The video discusses the development of smart bandages designed to aid in the healing of difficult wounds such as burns, diabetic ulcers, and bed sores. These bandages, supported by the National Science Foundation, are equipped with sensors to monitor wound conditions like pH, oxygen, and temperature. They can deliver oxygen and medication directly to the wound, enhancing healing. The bandages are made from flexible materials and can be monitored wirelessly, allowing for continuous observation of the healing process. The goal is to create a thin, flexible bandage that can protect, monitor, and treat wounds 24/7.
