They are extremely helpful in treating different types of wounds, such as those of surgical and chronic nature and ulcers.

The wound dressing market is observing the trend of the inclusion of smart bandages in wound management. Smart bandages, which are capable of curing chronic wounds, were designed by the researchers of Massachusetts Institute of Technology, University of Nebraska–Lincoln, and Harvard Medical School. Smart bandages are capable of releasing dose-dependent and multiple drugs at one time, which accelerates the healing process; that is why they are being increasingly adopted. These bandages are equipped with microprocessors that control the drug release, and also alarms and temperature and pH sensors.
