Development of smart clothing to prevent pressure injuries in bedridden persons...
Rêgo, Anderson da Silva; Furtado, Guilherme Eustáquio; Bernardes, Rafael A.; Santos-Costa, Paulo; Dias, Rosana A.; Alves, Filipe S.; Ainla, AlarPressure injuries (PIs) are a major public health problem and can be used as quality-of-care indicators. An incipient development in the field of medical devices takes the form of Smart Health Textiles, which can possess innovative properties such as thermoregulation, sensing, and antibacterial control. This protocol aims to describe the process for the development of a new type of smart clothing for individual...

Mehravani, Behnaz; Negreiros, Talita Nicolau Oliveira Vidal; Ribeiro, Ana Isabel Ferreira; Parente, Joana Filipa Carvalho; Sousa, Vânia Isabel FernandesThere is a high demand for the development of textiles possessing multifunctional properties for outdoor, protective and health care applications. The coating of polyester (PES) textiles with metal nanoparticles and essential oils may act in a synergistic mode to obtain materials with improved antimicrobial and UV-protection properties. However, the lack of functional groups onto PES structure makes the adhesio...
Functionalization of woven fabrics for antimicrobial capability using microcaps...
Negreiros, Talita Nicolau Oliveira Vidal; Parente, Joana Filipa Carvalho; Sousa, Vânia Isabel Fernandes; Padrão, Jorge; Tavares, C. J.; Zille, Andrea[Excerpt] The functionalization of textiles covers multiple objectives, such as the allocation of perfumes, antimicrobials, some drugs, phase change materials. Among these goals, the antimicrobial capability ensures that microorganisms do not thrive on textiles (Fig. 1), allowing users to use these products safer in different scenarios. This research evaluates the antimicrobial capacity of cotton fabrics throug...

Sousa, Vânia Isabel FernandesIn recent years, technological development requires more complex PCB and PCBA production processes. Miniaturization is one of the greatest challenges in today's electronics industry, requiring a higher density of electronic components in the smallest area possible. However, changes in PCB layout rules, reduced size of electronic components and increased functionality may jeopardize product reliability. Therefor...
