Electrocardiographic recording with conformable organic electrochemical transistor fabricated on resorbable bioscaffold

Abstract

Organic electrochemical transistors are fabricated on a poly(L-lactide-co-glycolide) substrate. Fast and sensitive performance of the transistors allows recording of the electrocardiogram. The result paves the way for new types of bioelectronic interfaces with reduced invasiveness due to bioresorption and soft mechanical properties. © 2014 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.
