Progress in self-powered medical devices for breathing recording

Abstract

Wearable and implantable medical technologies are increasingly being used for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of illnesses and other health concerns. One's respiration can be monitored using any number of different biosensors and tracking devices. Self-powered sensors, for example, have a reduced total cost, are easy to prepare, have a high degree of design-ability, and are available in a number of different forms when compared to other types of sensors. The mechanical energy stored in the respiratory system could be converted into electrical energy by using airflow to operate self-powered sensors. Self-recharging sensors and systems are now in development to make home health monitoring and diagnosis more practical. There has not been a lot of study devoted to the models of respiratory sickness or the output signals that connect with them. Thus, investigating the character of their bond is not only difficult but also crucial. This article examined the theory behind self-powered breathing sensors and systems, as well as their output characteristics, detection indices, and other cutting-edge developments. To help communicate knowledge to other academics working in this field and interested in this topic, we also explored the challenges and potential benefits of autonomous sensors.
