Dry wearable graphene-based electrodes for multi-lead ECG signal acquisition fabricated by printing technologies

Our proposed research project aims to develop flexible, wearable sensors for monitoring heart health using advanced materials such as graphene and flexible printed electrodes. These sensors will be integrated into a comfortable and non-invasive wearable device that can continuously monitor and track the wearer’s heart health through ECG readings. The device will be designed to provide real-time alerts to the wearer or their healthcare provider if any concerning heart abnormalities are detected. By using these advanced materials, we hope to develop a device that is both highly sensitive and durable, with the potential to revolutionize the way we monitor and manage heart-related conditions. This technology has the potential to improve early detection and management of heart-related diseases, such as atrial fibrillation, which can lead to serious health complications if left untreated. By providing individuals with a non-invasive, user-friendly device for continuous heart monitoring, we hope to contribute to the development of more effective and accessible healthcare solutions.
