Rubber bands could help to monitor patients' breathing

摘要

IRELAND/UK: Rubber bands treated with graphene have been used to create a flexible and highly sensitive sensor, which could be used as a medical application. Research published in the journal ACS Nano identifies this sensor that could monitor body movement and "revolutionise the future of global healthcare". Body motion sensors already exist in different forms, but they are not widely used due to their complex nature and production costs.
