Wireless medical sensor network is used in healthcare applications that have the collections of biosensors connected to a human body or emergency care unit to monitor the patient's physiological vital status. The real-time medical data collected using wearable medical sensors are transmitted to a diagnostic centre. The data generated from the sensors are aggregated at this centre and transmitted further to the doctor's personal digital assistant for diagnosis. The unauthorised access of one's health data may lead to misuse and legal complications while unreliable data transmission or storage may lead to life threatening risk to patients. So, this Letter combines the symmetric algorithm and attribute-based encryption to secure the data transmission and access control system for medical sensor network. In this work, existing systems and their algorithm are compared for identifying the best performance. The work also shows the graphical comparison of encryption time, decryption time and total computation time of the existing and the proposed systems.

Background: Accurate assessment of fluid volume and hydration status is essential in many disease states, including patients with chronic kidney disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of a wearable continuous bioimpedance sensor to detect changes in fluid volume in patients undergoing regular hemodialysis (HD).
Methods: 31 patients with end-stage renal disease were enrolled and monitored with a sensor patch (Re:Balans) on the upper back through two consecutive HD sessions and the interdialytic period between.

Mental health is vital to human well-being, and prevention strategies to address mental illness have a significant impact on the burden of disease and quality of life. With the recent developments in body-worn sensors, it is now possible to continuously collect data that can be used to gain insights into mental health states. This has the potential to optimize psychiatric assessment, thereby improving patient experiences and quality of life.

The use of 3D-printed electrodes is reported fabricated from in-house conductive filament composed of a mixture of recycled poly (lactic acid) (rPLA), graphite (Gpt), and carbon black (CB) for fast detection of the abused drug ketamine. Firstly, the performance of these electrodes was evaluated in comparison to 3D-printed electrodes produced employing a commercially available conductive filament. After a simple pretreatment step (mechanical polishing), the new 3D-printed electrodes presented better performance than the electrodes produced from commercial filament in relation to peak-to-peak separation of the redox probe [Fe(CN)]/ (130 mV and 759 mV, respectively), charge transfer resistance (R = 1.

Conductive hydrogels have emerged as excellent candidates for the design and construction of flexible wearable sensors and have attracted great attention in the field of wearable sensors. However, there are still serious challenges to integrating high stretchability, self-healing, self-adhesion, excellent sensing properties, and good biocompatibility into hydrogel wearable devices through easy and green strategies. In this paper, multifunctional conductive hydrogels (PCGB) with good biocompatibility, high tensile (1694 % strain), self-adhesive, and self-healing properties were fabricated by incorporating boric acid (BA) and glucose (Glu) simultaneously into polyacrylic acid (PAA) and chitosan (CS) polymer networks using a simple one-pot polymerization method.
