Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Sensor Technology
  • Wound Healing Research

Background:

  • Oxygen plays a critical role in wound healing.
  • Monitoring oxygen levels at the wound-dressing interface is crucial for understanding healing dynamics.
  • Existing methods for oxygen determination in wounds have limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report on a novel flexible amperometric oxygen sensor for wound applications.
  • To evaluate the sensor's performance in vitro and in vivo for wound healing studies.
  • To assess the potential of the sensor for guiding wound dressing selection.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of a flexible amperometric oxygen sensor using thin film deposition.
  • Operation of the sensor using a pulsed waveform.

  • In vitro testing for response linearity and reproducibility.
  • In vivo implantation into porcine sham wounds for oxygen tension monitoring.

    • Main Results:

    • The sensor demonstrated good linearity of response in vitro.
    • In vivo oxygen response was observed up to 50 hours post-insertion in porcine wounds.
    • The sensor followed expected trends with changes in wound oxygenation.
    • Absolute oxygen tension values were uncertain due to calibration instability and sealing issues.

    Conclusions:

    • The flexible amperometric oxygen sensor shows potential for monitoring wound oxygenation.
    • Further development is needed to improve reproducibility, calibration stability, and sensor sealing.
    • Addressing these limitations is essential for reliable application in wound healing and dressing evaluation.
