👉 Bracelets, or bracelet-like medical devices, have increasingly been used to monitor and combat infections, particularly in healthcare settings. These small, wearable devices can be embedded with sensors that detect biomarkers associated with infection, such as specific proteins or metabolites, in bodily fluids like sweat or interstitial fluid. By continuously monitoring these biomarkers, bracelets can provide early warnings of potential infections before symptoms become apparent, allowing for timely intervention and treatment. This proactive approach helps reduce the spread of pathogens, enhances patient outcomes, and eases the burden on healthcare systems by minimizing hospital readmissions and the need for broad-spectrum antibiotics. Additionally, some advanced bracelets integrate with mobile health apps, enabling patients to track their health data and share it with healthcare providers, fostering a more personalized and responsive care model.
