Recently, researchers have adapted Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) as a new approach to objectively monitor wounds. They have indicated various BIA parameters associated to specific wound types can be linked to wound healing through trend analysis relative to time. However, these studies are conducted using wet electrodes which have been identified as possessing several shortcomings, such as unstable measurements. Thus, the adaption of e-textile electrodes has become an area of interest in measuring biosignals. E-textile electrodes are known to possess a significantly large polarization impedance (Z _p ) that potentially influences these biosignal measurements. In this study we aim to identify the suitability of e-textile electrodes to monitor wounds using BIA methodologies. By adapting suggested methodologies conducted in-vivo from previous studies, we used an ex-vivo model to observe the behaviour of e-textile electrodes relative to time. This was compared to common clinical wet electrodes, specifically Ag/AgCl. The objective of this study was to identify the BIA parameters that can be used to monitor wounds with e-textile electrodes. By analysing the BIA parameters relative to time, we observed the influence of Z _p on these parameters.

最近，研究人员采用生物电阻抗分析 (BIA) 作为客观监测伤口的新方法。他们已经表明，与特定伤口类型相关的各种 BIA 参数可以通过相对于时间的趋势分析与伤口愈合联系起来。然而，这些研究是使用湿电极进行的，湿电极已被确定具有几个缺点，例如测量不稳定。因此，电子纺织品电极的适应已成为测量生物信号的一个有趣领域。众所周知，电子纺织电极具有非常大的极化阻抗 ( Z _p ) 可能会影响这些生物信号测量。在这项研究中，我们旨在确定电子织物电极是否适合使用 BIA 方法监测伤口。通过采用以前研究中建议的在体内进行的方法，我们使用离体模型来观察电子纺织品电极相对于时间的行为。这与常见的临床湿电极，特别是 Ag/AgCl 进行了比较。本研究的目的是确定可用于使用电子纺织电极监测伤口的 BIA 参数。通过分析相对于时间的 BIA 参数，我们观察到Z _p对这些参数的影响。
