A Mechanical–Electrochemical Dual-Model E-Skin for the Monitoring of Cardiovascular Healthcare by Jianxiao Fang, Yunting Jia, Zelong Liao, Bairui Qi, Tao Huang

“…Here, we present a novel, compact, and highly integrated skin electrode as a mechanical–electrochemical dual-model E-skin, designed for the real-time monitoring of heart rate and sweat ion concentration, two critical parameters for assessing cardiovascular health. As a pressure sensor, this E-skin is suitable for accurate heart rate monitoring, as it exhibits high sensitivity (25.2 pF·kPa⁻¹), a low detection limit of 6 Pa, and a rapid response time of ~20 ms, which is attributed to the iontronic sensing interface between the skin and the electrode. …”
