CONTENTS Introduction What is a biosensor ? Types Of Wearable Biosensors Applications Advantages Disadvantages Conclusion References Need of wearable biosensors

NEED OF WEARABLE BIOSENSORS remote monitoring of patients. training support for athlete monitoring of individuals who work with hazardous elements. tracking of professional truck driver’s vital signs to alert them of fatigue.

INTRODUCTION Use of wearable monitoring devices allow continuous monitoring of physiological signals. Wearable systems are totally non-obtrusive devices that allow physicians to overcome the limitations of ambulatory technology. detects events predictive of possible worsening of the patient’s clinical situations.

WHAT IS A BIOSENSOR ?

COMPONENTS Biosensor Consists of 3 parts: Biological component Physiochemical component. Signal processor.

WEARABLE BIOSENSORS TYPES- RING SENSOR. SMART SHIRT.

RING SENSOR

Applications:- Wireless supervision of people during hazardous operations. In an overcrowded emergency department. Chronic surveillance of abnormal heart failure. In cardio-vascular disease for monitoring the hyper tension.

APPLICATIONS OF SMART SHIRT

FUTURE TRENDS .Wearable Biosensors tattoos monitor sweat to track weight. .The Smarts shirt’s delta acquisition capabilities can be used to detect the condition when an individual is lapsing into a diabetic shock and this integrated feedback mechanism can provide the appropriate response to prevent a fatality .Intake of Electronic Pill at emergency conditions will help to detect any unfound diseases of the patient and the health statistics and updates will be sent to the mobile. .Greater use of home based monitoring and treatments

CONCLUSION:- Just as special-purpose chips and processors can be plugged into a computer motherboard to obtain the the required information processing capability, the smart shirt is an information infrastructure in which the wearer can “plug in” the desired sensors and devices, thereby creating a system for monitoring vital signs in an efficient and cost effective manner with a “universal” interface of clothing. Just as the spreadsheet pioneered the field of information processing that brought “computing to the masses”.It is anticipated that the smart shirt will bring personalized & affordable healthcare monitoring to the population at large.
