Health and Vital Signs Monitoring Patch with Display and Making of Same

Abstract:

A vital signs monitoring patch with integrated display (VSM) includes a user access layer for accessing a display section and a first printed silver-silver chloride (Ag--AgCl) electrode. A polyethylene foam layer including battery and plunger cut-outs. A printed circuit board assembly (PCBA) layer including vitals sign monitoring sensors and the battery and connected to the first and second printed Ag--AgCl electrodes. The polyethylene foam layer bonded to the user access layer and the PCBA layer. A sensor layer including reflection mode oximetry components and the second printed Ag--AgCl electrode. A hydrogel conductive adhesive to interact between a user skin and the second printed Ag--AgCl electrode. A medical tape layer bonded to the user skin and the sensor layer. A plunger connected to the PCBA layer and configured to power on the VSM, where user access of the first printed Ag--AgCl electrode completes a circuit with the second printed Ag--AgCl electrode.
