Hydration Check Patch

About

Advanced patch for continuous hydration monitoring

A novel solution for monitoring hydration, particularly suited for the elderly. By utilising electrochemical sweat analysis, the Hydration Check Patch provides a non-invasive, continuous hydration check without requiring physical activity. It uses iontophoresis to stimulate sweat glands, collects sweat in a microfluidic channel, and analyses it with electrochemical sensors. This reliable alternative to invasive methods meets the growing demand for accessible healthcare tools, especially as the population ages and heat waves become more frequent
