Article Synopsis
- A study addresses the ongoing challenge of rapid diagnosis of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) by proposing a "nose-on-a-chip" device to detect pneumonia metabolites in patients early on.
- The chip is built using advanced 90-nm CMOS technology and includes multiple sensors and a low-power processing unit, enabling effective detection in a compact form.
- The experimental results demonstrate a high identification rate of 94.06% for VAP, with perfect accuracy in recognizing specific bacteria and fungi, presenting a significant advancement in VAP diagnostics.
