Smart Wound Dressing: The Future of Healthcare
At TNO at Holst Centre, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of healthcare innovation. Smart wound dressing is a prime example of how we bridge the gap between concept and market-ready solutions, turning visionary ideas into practical tools for healthcare providers and patients alike.
Quality of Life with Data-Driven Treatments
Smart wound dressings aim to improve patient care by offering more accurate, data-driven treatments. Non-healing and chronic wounds, such as diabetic ulcers or surgical wounds, often require constant monitoring, which can be challenging for both patients and healthcare providers. Smart wound dressings allow healthcare providers to monitor the progress of healing remotely, helping to ensure early intervention and more effective care plans. With constant monitoring of important vitals, these dressings can facilitate early detection of infections, enable timely interventions, and contribute to more efficient healthcare delivery. Our future vision is autonomous digital support tools with the aim of accelerating and preventing wound developments.
The Benefits: Technological Innovations
Smart wound dressings incorporate groundbreaking technologies, such as flexible electronics, high-resolution sensors, and innovative materials:
Flexible electronics: Flexible materials and stretchable electronics ensure comfort by adapting to the body's natural movements, reducing irritation, and enhancing the wearer's experience. Incorporated seamlessly in existing solutions for wound treatment.
Multi-modal sensors: The sensors measure temperature, humidity, and other parameters of the wound, providing detailed data that aids healthcare providers in monitoring progress, detecting problems and adjusting treatment plans when needed. By exploring various parameters, we’re uncovering critical insights into wound health and infection, while actively addressing the challenges of integrating diverse sensor technologies for a comprehensive approach.
We have a well-connected ecosystem
