Electronic-Textile (E-Textile) Electrodes for use in Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis

posted on 2023-08-11, 03:11 authored by Irini LogothetisThis study analysed e-textile electrodes for use for Bioelectrical impedance analysis. It studies the impact of the embroidery parameters on the polarization impedance. By identifying the parameters that result in a relatively low polarization impedance, e-textile electrode samples were fabricated on various substrates where the polarization impedance was measured in relation to skin properties, such as perspiration and temperature. The e-textile electrodes were then tested against common clinical Ag/AgCl electrodes ex-vivo where the parameters used to monitor the wound healing process were analysed and compared. The findings indicate that e-textile electrodes are comparable to Ag/AgCl for some parameters; however, future work is required to be comparable across all parameters.
