Since the world’s first triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) was proposed in 2012, numerous TENG-based devices and equipment have sprung up in various fields. In particular, TENG has great potential in the field of human-health care due to its small size, self-powered and low cost. With the continuous deepening of TENG research, its structure, function and technical concept are becoming more and more abundant. In order to summarize the progress and development status of TENG in health care, based on the different types of applications subdirection, this paper reviews the TENG-based research work of this field in recent eight years. The characteristics of various types of TENG-based applications and their corresponding technologies are introduced and analyzed, under the comparison of their structure and performance. This review is dedicated to provide reference and inspiration for the future development and innovation of TENG for health care.

自2012年世界上第一台摩擦纳米发电机（TENG）被提出以来，众多基于TENG的器件和设备在各个领域如雨后春笋般涌现。特别是，TENG 具有体积小、自供电和低成本等特点，在人类医疗保健领域具有巨大潜力。随着TENG研究的不断深入，其结构、功能和技术概念也越来越丰富。为了总结TENG在医疗保健领域的进展和发展现状，基于不同类型的应用子方向，本文回顾了近八年来该领域基于TENG的研究工作。通过结构和性能的比较，介绍和分析了各类基于TENG的应用及其相应技术的特点。
