Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Medical Imaging
  • Wearable Technology

Background:

  • Efficient electrode connection is crucial for high-quality impedance measurement and voltage monitoring.
  • Current electrical impedance tomography (EIT) electrode setups are often cumbersome, limiting practicality and portability.
  • Existing human-electrode interfaces like belts and helmets have limitations for long-term monitoring.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a novel electrode belt for long-term EIT monitoring of human lung ventilation.
  • To assess the comfort, stability, and impedance characteristics of the developed electrode system.
  • To demonstrate the efficacy of the electrode belt in EIT imaging during various physiological conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of a 16-electrode belt using Ag-plated PVDF nanofiber web and metallic threads.
  • Incorporation of embossed electrodes with large contact areas and padding for improved comfort and reduced impedance.
  • Testing the electrode belt with the KHU Mark1 multi-frequency EIT system on phantoms and human subjects.

Main Results:

  • The Ag-plated PVDF nanofiber web electrodes demonstrated flexibility and durability suitable for long-term measurements.
  • Contact impedance and stability were comparable to Ag/AgCl electrodes.
  • Successful time-difference EIT images were acquired during normal breathing and running.

Conclusions:

  • The developed electrode belt provides a practical and comfortable solution for long-term EIT monitoring.
  • Ag-plated PVDF nanofiber web electrodes are a viable alternative to traditional electrodes for EIT applications.
  • This innovation enhances the potential for portable and widespread use of EIT technology.
