4. Rapidly Expanding Field External biosensors are already used in emergency rooms as point-of-care diagnostic units Can reveal immediately if a patient is in cardiac arrest by testing their blood chemistry

5. Other uses of Biosensors DNA sensors Genetic screening Genetic screening Detects diseases Detects diseases Drug testing Drug testingImmumosensors Detects HIV Detects HIV Hepatitis Hepatitis Other viral diseases Other viral diseases

6. Point-of-Care sensors Tests blood Tests blood Urine Urine Gases Gases Etc. Etc. Bacteria Sensors E-coli E-coli Streptococcus Streptococcus Etc. Etc.

7. Steps into the Future Implementation into the body Digital dashboard for bodily functions Could potentially eliminate long waits in the doctor’s office To be manually and wirelessly controlled Used to detect and treat an acute conditions Biosensors that can act as an artificial organ Sense a condition Sense a condition Respond automatically without user intervention Respond automatically without user intervention
