eBandage Accelerates Healing
Innovation from a Global Team of Scientists
New Electric Bandage Heals
It's a self-powered, electric bandage that generates an electric field over an injury. It dramatically reduces the healing time. The innovation comes from a global team of scientists - China's University of Electronic Science & Technology and the University of Wisconsin.
Healing Electric Field
They've created a flexible, self-powered bandage that converts normal skin movements into a therapeutic electric field.
Dramatic Results
The power comes from a wearable nanogenerator. It converts normal movements into small electrical pulses. The current flows to two electrodes placed on either side of a wound. That creates a small electric field over the wound. The results are dramatic. Wounds covered by the eBandage closed in 3 days. Those without the eBandage averaged 12 days.
