In the past few years, a significant amount of breakthroughs in the research field of wearable biosensors have made them possible for broad applications. The study of wearable sensors is an interdisciplinary field, which makes a lot of contributions to almost all aspects of daily life. For example, biomedical diagnosis is one of the practical applications that can be benefited from wearable biosensors. Research sciences and biomedical societies have recently started to use wearable biosensors to assess precise health diagnosis. Biomedical practitioners need safer, cheaper, and more customized health diagnosis options for patients. The wearable biosensor is one such solution that can be easily carried out for early detection, chronic disease treatment, health management, well-being surveillance, etc.
Wearable biosensors have attracted great attention in recent years. A large number of physiological signals including physical biosignals e.g. temperature, pulse, blood pressure, etc, and biochemical parameters such as glucose, dopamine, pH, various ions, and many other biomarkers in the human biofluids including human sweat, skin interstitial fluid, and tears can be monitored in real time. Applying these biosensors to disease diagnosis and health monitoring is the research problem that needs to address in the following research. Besides, wearable biosensors can also help patients in the locked-in state to control home appliances and communicate with the external world to greatly facilitate the life of patients. Novel biosensors with the ability to diagnose disease and facilitate patients should be fabricated and experiments with patients or healthy people are needed.
Wearable biosensors for biomedical applications including disease diagnosis, chronic disease treatment, health management, well-being surveillance, etc. are attractive research topics. Potential subtopics of this Research Topic include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Wearable glucose sensors to monitor glucose concentration in sweat for patients with diabetes;
• Wearable contact lenses for temperature monitoring to diagnose dry eye syndrome;
• Wearable electromyogram sensors to help patients in the locked-in state to control home appliances and communicate with the external world;
• Multifunctional biosensors with customized health diagnosis options for patients are interesting research areas.
The biosensors in the Research topic will shed the light on the next generation of wearable biomedical devices. Both research and review articles are welcome in the Research Topic.
