In this paper, we present a pioneer design of a wearable and flexible potentiometric chloride activity sensing platform. This platform is intended to provide real-time support for the diagnosis of Cystic Fibrosis by gathering and correlating historical clinical data of patients under control. To ensure wearable and comfortable functionality, a flexible support has employed for both the multi-working electrochemical electrodes and the smart electronics. The proposed electronic system embeds a microcontroller, enabling potential reasoning on the acquired data and patient history, while a microchip antenna ensures the wireless transmission of measurements and diagnosis to a remote healthcare center. The characterization of the realized electrodes and the electronic readout are here shown: the results are compliant with the requirements of the standard medical equipment.

Abstract
In this paper, we present a pioneer design of a wearable and flexible potentiometric chloride activity sensing platform. This platform is intended to provide real-time support for the diagnosis of Cystic Fibrosis by gathering and correlating historical clinical data of patients under control. To ensure wearable and comfortable functionality, a flexible support has employed for both the multi-working electrochemical electrodes and the smart electronics. The proposed electronic system embeds a microcontroller, enabling potential reasoning on the acquired data and patient history, while a microchip antenna ensures the wireless transmission of measurements and diagnosis to a remote healthcare center. The characterization of the realized electrodes and the electronic readout are here shown: the results are compliant with the requirements of the standard medical equipment.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
