A Smart Leap Forward: Continuous Wound Monitoring with iCares Smart bandage from Caltech and USC teams #EpidermalElectronics #ActAgainstAmputation @Caltech @Keckschool_USC @USC_Vascular

Chronic wounds represent one of the most persistent challenges in modern healthcare, often leading to prolonged suffering and substantial economic burden. Today, the management of these wounds still largely relies on intermittent clinical assessments and subjective classification systems, which can delay detection of infection or impaired healing. A new study, born out of a powerful... Continue Reading →

New โ€œsmart bandagesโ€ hold potential for revolutionizing the treatment of chronic wounds

This article of our recent work written by Zara Abrams Researchers at the Keck School of Medicine of USC are co-leading an effort to develop advanced electronic bandages and other tools to improve chronic wound monitoring and healing. Chronic wounds, which include diabetic ulcers, surgical wounds, pressure injuries, and other problems, are deadlier than many... Continue Reading →

@CalTech @USC Study: the Gap in Wound Management: From Bench to Bedside and Beyond #ActAgainstAmputation #WoundHealing @KeckSchool_USC @USC_Vascular @ALPSlimb @Nature @NaturePortfolio

Chronic wounds represent a significant global health challenge, imposing substantial economic and social burdens. Addressing this issue requires innovative approaches that integrate advances in material sciences and bioengineering. Our recent review in Nature Reviews Materials explores the history, current state, and future of wound management materials and technologies, highlighting the critical role of multidisciplinary collaboration...
