Description

Wound damage state monitoring devices based on flexible ventilative hydrogel membrane
Technical Field
The invention relates to medical risk monitoring of postoperative wounds by using a flexible sensor, in particular to a device for monitoring the wound damage state based on a flexible breathable hydrogel film.
Background
It is clinically necessary to monitor the occurrence of a major surgical wound that is damaged by the forces exerted on the surrounding tissues during the recovery period. For example, in one month after the cesarean section of a parturient, rehabilitation training for organ homing needs to be carried out autonomously or with the assistance of external force, and symptoms such as cough, nausea and vomiting can occur in the recovery process, which can cause the deformation of a wound surface and even lead a suture to be broken, thereby not only affecting the healing effect of a surgical wound, but also causing severe pain and increasing the infection risk after the surgical wound is broken. But traditional closely knit wound wraps and is unsuitable for the macroscopic observation wound to change, and the stereoplasm sensor of commercialization can bring mechanical strength mismatch, gas permeability poor, uncomfortable scheduling problem as monitoring tool, is unfavorable for wearing for a long time.
The flexible wearable equipment has the characteristics of wearability, comfortableness, remote operation, timely feedback and the like, and a core element of the flexible wearable equipment is a sensor capable of meeting the detection requirements of certain physiological and pathological indexes. For example, chinese patent 201910457555.1 proposes carbon nanotube/polydimethylsiloxane fibers for strain sensors. For monitoring the damage of the operation wound, the corresponding sensor also meets the basic requirements of the dressing, and simultaneously, the qualitative or quantitative detection capability for the wound exudate is required. For example, chinese patent 201780050186.3 proposes a visual indicator system for wound condition determination using a gemma/chromogenic microsphere/photoinitiator mixture and formed by curing deposition onto Orion nonwoven material, wherein the gemma can be degraded by specific enzymes in the wound exudate to induce directional flow of the chromogenic microspheres. But the problem lies in this system can't realize continuous monitoring because there is structural loss, and the interpretation of colour signal itself has human error to disturb, and wound is wrapped and is also unfavorable for its play.
At present, based on the advantages of gemma in biocompatibility, a composite hydrogel matrix with good conductivity, mechanical stability and high load capacity is obtained by doping CNTs or graphene in a crosslinking process and utilizing a porous structure formed by crosslinking, for example, chinese patents 201910072582.7 and 201911129801.7. These matrix materials do not exhibit sensing capabilities in terms of strain, change in wetness, etc.

Preparation and characterization of (tri) CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane
Firstly, 1mL of graphene water solution with the mass fraction of 5% and 0.5mL of chitosan-acetic acid solution with the mass fraction of 1% (1g of chitosan is added into 100mL of acetic acid solution with the volume fraction of 1%) are taken to prepare a mixed solution, then 0.04g of CNTs (the diameter is 10-20 nm, the length is 10-30 mu m) are added into the mixed solution, and the mixed solution is subjected to ultrasonic treatment (100W) for 30min at room temperature to obtain the CNTs-graphene-chitosan mixed slurry.
And (3) cutting the dried porous electrospinning membrane prepared in the step (II), placing the cut porous electrospinning membrane into the CNTs-graphene-chitosan mixed slurry, and performing ultrasonic treatment (100W) for 10min at room temperature to disperse the CNTs and graphene which are conductive substances into pores of the electrospinning membrane.

The cross-sectional morphology of the CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane shows that the GelMA porous structure scaffold and the CNTs/graphene composites (referred to as CNTs and graphene) immobilized on the surface and inside through chitosan have a total membrane thickness of about 30 μm (as shown in FIG. 1 b).

The combination of the test results of a scanning electron microscope shows that the prepared CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane is a flexible breathable hydrogel membrane formed by CNTs and graphene and GelMA electrospun membranes, and the flexible breathable hydrogel membrane has a square resistance value of 150 omega-sq without tensile deformation through determination-1The water absorption rate is 300-500%.
(IV) manufacturing a sensing unit based on a flexible breathable hydrogel film
A piece of dry CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane is taken, two ends of the dry CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane are fixed with a thin conducting wire (an enameled wire with the diameter of about 100 mu m) by using conductive adhesive, and the membrane is completely wetted by water and then packaged by double-sided bonding of a soft elastic transparent medical waterproof breathable membrane (the Young modulus is close to that of the completely wetted CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane and can be deformed at the same time). The electrospun membrane in a wet state is used for constructing a strain sensing unit because of better flexibility and elasticity. The effect of strain on the resistance of the CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane in a completely wetted state is tested, and the result shows that the stretching degree of the membrane is in a linear relationship with the resistance change thereof in the range of 0-70% and 70-85%, respectively (as shown in FIG. 5), and the strain coefficients (the resistance change rate under unit strain) are 15.4 and 72.9, respectively. The two strain ranges correspond to the normal stretching range and the broken stretching range of the skin (see Wang et al adv. mater.2020,2003014), respectively, and can be used to qualitatively determine whether a wound is broken or not.
And (3) another piece of the dried CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane is taken, two ends of the dried CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane are fixed with thin wires (enameled wires with the diameter of about 100 mu m) by using conductive adhesive, the enameled wires are kept dry (without water infiltration), and then the enameled wires are bonded and packaged by using a soft elastic transparent medical waterproof breathable membrane on one side (the side which is not packaged faces to a wound) to form a exudate sensing unit. The influence of the wetting degree on the resistance is tested under the condition that the dried CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane absorbs water in a gradient way, and the result shows that the water absorption volume is 0-0.37 mu L/mm2Is linearly related to its resistance change (as shown in fig. 6).
(V) monitoring wound damage state's sensing device
Referring to fig. 3, the sensing device mainly comprises a voltage divider circuit and a portable detection device, wherein the voltage divider circuit comprising the strain sensing unit and the voltage divider circuit comprising the exudate sensing unit can be provided with voltage input by a power supply. Each voltage division circuit realizes real-time detection of voltage signals of the contained sensing units through portable detection equipment (such as a touch screen type oscilloscope), and the change of the voltage signals is in positive correlation with the change of the resistance values of the corresponding sensing units.
The voltage division circuit and the portable detection device are specifically mounted and connected as follows:
the two ends of the strain sensing unit (the leads are connected with the two ends of the corresponding sensing unit respectively through packaging) are fixed on the skin on the two sides of the wound respectively, the middle part of the strain sensing unit covers one section of suture area of the wound, the exudate sensing unit integrally covers the other section of suture area of the wound, and the soft elastic transparent medical waterproof breathable film is adopted for fixing the corresponding sensing unit on the skin near the wound, and the specific circuit connection refers to fig. 4. Each sensing unit is used as a variable resistor and is respectively connected with a constant value resistor with a certain resistance value in series through a lead, so that each voltage division circuit powered by a power supply is constructed, two groups of probes of the touch screen type oscilloscope are respectively connected with two ends of the strain sensing unit and two ends of the exudate sensing unit,for simultaneously testing the partial pressure change at both ends of the sensing unit. Using the first read voltage value for calculating or calibrating R0Therefore, the change of the resistance value of the sensing unit can be calculated by referring to the voltage of the constant-value resistor in the same voltage division circuit, so as to evaluate the deformation degree of the wound in the recovery period (for example, cracking caused by stress) and the exudation condition of the wound tissue fluid (for example, the volume of the exudation fluid). The touch screen type oscilloscope can also be connected with mobile terminal equipment such as a mobile phone and the like through WiFi to carry out remote control and reading.
(VI) sensing device for monitoring wound damage state
Referring to fig. 7, after a lying-in woman receives a cesarean section, the lying-in woman needs to perform organ homing rehabilitation training autonomously or with the assistance of external force, and skin strain caused by organ movement or external force extrusion easily tears a surgical wound due to a large wound surface, so that the wound is cracked due to excessive stress or the wound is damaged to flow out tissue fluid. However, it is not easy to observe the change of the wound state with naked eyes under the gauze covering state, so that a dual-function sensor with strain sensing and exudate sensing is needed for monitoring the wound state and warning.
The sensing unit of the dual-function sensor is divided into a strain sensing unit and an exudate sensing unit which respectively cross the wound and are attached to the skin, and the strain sensing unit and the exudate sensing unit are fixed by using the adhesive tape formed by cutting the medical waterproof breathable film. The strain sensing unit and the exudate sensing unit are respectively connected with a constant value resistor through enameled wires to form two voltage division circuits (the two circuits are in parallel connection and powered by a constant voltage power supply), the voltage division change of two ends of the corresponding sensing unit is respectively detected by using two channels of a touch screen type oscilloscope (voltage signals at two ends of the sensing unit are collected, and the result is respectively recorded), and the resistance change of the corresponding sensing unit caused by the change of strain and the wetting degree is obtained through calculation and analysis, so that the deformation and the exudate volume of tissue fluid of the corresponding sensing unit close to the wound caused by the action of external force on the vicinity of the wound are reflected. The mobile phone terminal can be connected with the touch screen type oscilloscope through WIFI, so that the oscilloscope can be conveniently controlled remotely and in real time by using the APP, and a detection result can be displayed.
In practical application, because the wound sutured after the caesarean section is usually in a long strip shape, and the deformation of the middle part is relatively large, the strain sensing unit is arranged in the middle part of the wound, and one or more groups of exudate sensing units can be properly added beside the strain sensing unit so as to find the change of the wound in time before the pain and warn the possible danger of the wound. For example, when the strain sensing unit is displayed on an oscilloscope beyond the set 70% range, a wound tearing risk may occur (as shown in fig. 5). Whether liquid (such as tissue fluid) seeps out of the wound and the seepage amount is judged by continuously observing whether the corresponding signals of the seepage sensing unit linearly change or not, when the seepage sensing unit absorbs the liquid to be saturated (completely infiltrated), the linear curve is suddenly increased and then tends to be stable (as shown in figure 6), and at the moment, the puerpera can feel obvious pain. Therefore, the wound state can be judged according to the feedback of the oscilloscope, and the wound is timely treated before the exudate sensing unit is completely wetted, so that excessive pain and secondary infection caused by excessive exudate are avoided. In the subsequent development of finished products of the device, corresponding alarm modules can be arranged at corresponding signal nodes when the stretching amount of 70 percent and the absorption of exuded liquid are saturated, so as to remind the user to adjust the force in time.
Example 2
Compared to example 1, the preparation of CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membranes presented a difference in the amount of CNTs:
preparing a mixed solution from 1mL of 5% graphene aqueous solution and 0.5mL of 1% chitosan-acetic acid solution, then adding 0.01g of CNTs into the mixed solution, and performing ultrasonic treatment (100W) for 30min at room temperature to obtain CNTs-graphene-chitosan mixed slurry.
Compared with the CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane prepared in the example 1, the CNTs/graphene/GelMA electrospun membrane prepared in the example 2 has a square resistance value of 250 omega-sq without tensile deformation-1A significant increase in the square resistance value indicates a poorer conductivity than in example 1. And in the range of 0-70%, the strain coefficient is 9.32, which is smaller than that of example 1, indicating that the strain performance of the strain sensor is relatively poor.
In summary, the present invention is directed to the wound deformation and the liquid exudation phenomenon in the wound that can occur after the cesarean section, and the corresponding sensing units are used to monitor the wound of the parturient in real time from two aspects, which is beneficial to the postoperative recovery of the parturient, and is also suitable for the postoperative wound risk monitoring of other types of operations (for example, organ transplantation) that can occur stress influence.
