Advancements in biosensor technologies for fibrinogen detection in cardiovascular disorders

Rapid and accurate identification of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are crucial for timely medical interventions and improved patient outcomes. Fibrinogen (Fib) has emerged as a valuable biomarker for CVDs, playing a significant role in their early detection. Elevated levels of Fib are associated with an increased risk of developing CVD, highlighting its importance for more precise diagnosis and effective treatment strategies. In recent years, significant advancements have been made in developing biosensor-based approaches for detecting Fib, offering high sensitivity and specificity. This review aims to explore the impact of Fib on cardiovascular conditions, assess the current advancements, and discuss the future potential of biosensors in Fib research for diagnosing cardiovascular disorders. Furthermore, we evaluate various biosensor techniques, including optical, electrochemical, electronic, and gravimetric methods, in terms of their utility for measuring Fib in clinical samples such as serum, plasma, whole blood, and other body fluids. A comparative analysis of these techniques is conducted based on their performance characteristics. By providing a comprehensive overview of the relationship between Fib and cardiovascular ailments, this review aims to clarify the advancements in biosensor technology for Fib detection. The comparison of different biosensor techniques will aid researchers and clinicians in selecting the most suitable approach for their specific diagnostic needs. Ultimately, integrating biosensors into clinical practice has the potential to revolutionize the detection and management of CVDs, leading to improved patient care and outcomes.
