Abstract
a Bluetooth system, the SPAg hydrogel-based E-skin was employed to accurately monitor human movements including vigorous joint movements and subtle facial micro-expressions. Finally, benefiting from the synergistic effect of antimicrobial and exogenous electrical stimulation, through promoting angiogenesis and accelerating collagen production in diabetic wounds, PSPAg E-skin successfully facilitates rapid diabetic wound healing. Therefore, the multifunctional PSPAg hydrogel-based E-skin shows great promise for applications in wearable devices and bioelectronics.
