Development of a Patch-Type Sensor for Skin Using Laser Irradiation Based on Tissue Impedance for Diagnosis and Treatment of Pressure Ulcer

Pressure ulcer is a disease that has been increasing rapidly worldwide in recent years following the growing elderly population. However, its diagnoses and treatments still depend on the naked eye and traditional drug treatments, respectively. In this study, we examined the effects of the pressure u...
