Smart bandages with support of 5G will allow doctors to monitor the state of wounds.

The launch of the fifth-generation networks should promote the ubiquitous spread of the Internet of things.This technology will not bypass the field and the field of medicine. Researchers from the University of Swansea have created a bandage using 5G for transmission to the attending physician Information about the healing process Patients also use nanosensors to track improvements, based on the information received, the doctor will be able to recommend a treatment plan and also to track the patient's motor acti

"This intelligent bandage uses nanotechnology to learn about the state of the wound at any one time. It will connect it to the 5g infrastructure, and the latter through your phone will tell you where you are and how active. You will combine all the data so that the doctor knows about the state of your wound at any particular time, and then could change the course of treatment, "said mark clement, professor and chairman of the institute of life sciences in swansea.

Researchers also said that to save money, smart bandages could be produced on 3D printers, unfortunately nothing has been reported about the massive use of this technology, 4pda.ru reports.
