Description
一種吸濕感測材,特別是一種具有濕度管理功能之智能吸濕感測材。 A moisture absorption sensing material, especially an intelligent moisture absorption sensing material with humidity management function.
傷口上之血水與化膿都會引起再惡化之現象,嚴重可能導致潰瘍腐爛,甚至有截肢或敗血性休克等危險;不良於行之病人與尿失禁銀髮族等,應須定時更換尿布才不會有褥瘡、皮膚過敏或是不舒適之感覺,對此護理人員需要時刻注意患者、傷者的敷材或是不良於行之病人與尿失禁銀髮族的尿布狀態,並適時更換敷材與尿布,以避免以上情形發生。 The blood and suppuration on the wound can cause further deterioration, which may cause ulcers to rot, and even risk of amputation or septic shock; poor patients and urinary incontinence silver-haired people should change their diapers regularly. Bed sores, skin allergies, or uncomfortable feelings. Nursing staff should always pay attention to the dressings of the patient, the injured, or the diaper status of the poor patients and urinary incontinence silver-haired people, and change the dressings and diapers in time to avoid them. The above situation happened.
然而,在醫病比嚴重不平衡之現狀,醫護人員不足的情況下,難以時常注意每位病患的狀態,導致醫療糾紛與病情加重等現象層出不窮,更因為醫護人員之缺乏且超時工作,大幅降低醫療品質。 However, in the current situation of serious imbalance in the medical-to-health ratio and insufficient medical staff, it is difficult to always pay attention to the status of each patient, resulting in medical disputes and aggravation of the disease. It is also because of the lack of medical staff and overtime work. Significantly reduce the quality of medical care.
目前雖已有業者針對此問題提出解決的方法,例如在敷材、尿布上設置材質為導電銀膠之感測線加以感測敷材的濕度狀態,進而藉由濕度狀態的改變發出警示訊號,以提示醫護人員更換敷材、尿布,但是既有的感測線都是實心印製,且導電銀膠的延伸性不佳,隨著敷材的撓曲或拉伸可能產生裂隙,導致電導通效果下降,影響感測品質,且實心印製之感測線用料較多,成本較高昂,且儲存不易。 At present, the industry has proposed solutions to this problem. For example, a sensing line made of conductive silver glue is set on the dressing and diapers to sense the humidity state of the dressing, and then a warning signal is issued by the change of the humidity state. Remind the medical staff to replace the dressing and diapers, but the existing sensing lines are all solid printed, and the conductive silver glue has poor extensibility. As the dressing is flexed or stretched, cracks may occur, resulting in a decrease in the electrical conduction effect , It affects the quality of sensing, and the solid printed sensing line uses more materials, which is expensive and difficult to store.
為了改善目前醫療人員因醫病比嚴重失衡,無法時常注意每位傷患傷口或是尿布狀態,以及既有具感測功能的敷料、尿布,其感測線無法隨著敷材或尿布的撓曲或拉伸程度而導致裂隙,並繼而影響感測品質的問題,本發明提供一種智能吸濕感測材,其包含:一基材,該基材具有可撓曲、拉伸或壓縮特性;以及至少二導電條間隔排列並附著於該基材之表面,各導電條係以複數個電導通單元所組成,使該導電條以非實心但連續電導通之狀態附著於該基材之表面。 In order to improve the current medical staff’s serious imbalance due to the medical-to-illness ratio, they cannot always pay attention to the wound or diaper status of each injury and patient, as well as the existing dressings and diapers with sensing functions.
