  Abstract

In vivo pressure produced by human activity is commonly used as a medical indicator of human health. Therefore, flexible and wearable pressure sensors capable of measuring and quantifying various pressures in the human body are of great interest because of their unique characteristics such as ultra-thin film, low modulus, light weight, high flexibility and stretchability. These flexible/wearable pressure sensors can be easily attached to the organ or skin surface to provide new opportunities for human activity monitoring and personal health care. In this paper, we review recent development trends of medical pressure sensors and explain operation principle and applicability. We will also look at new structures, innovations and challenges as well as the latest examples of human-monitored pressure sensors. Finally, we discussed the standardization of the medical devices that are required for the medical field.
