Wearable Electrochemical Sensor for Sweat‐Based Potassium Ion and Glucose Detection in Exercise Health Monitoring

Abstract: The increasing prevalence of wearable devices has sparked a growing interest in real‐time health monitoring and physiological parameter tracking. This study focuses on the development of a cost‐effective sweat analysis device, utilizing microfluidic technology and selective electrochemical electrodes for non‐invasive monitoring of glucose and potassium ions. The device, through real‐time monitoring of glucose and potassium ion levels in sweat during physical activity, issues a warning signal when reaching experimentally set thresholds (K+ concentration at 7.5 mM, glucose concentrations at 60 μM and 120 μM). This alerts users to potential dehydration and hypoglycemic conditions. Through the integration of microfluidic devices and precise electrochemical analysis techniques, the device enables accurate and real‐time monitoring of glucose and potassium ions in sweat. This advancement in wearable technology holds significant potential for personalized health management and preventive care, promoting overall well‐being, and optimizing performance during physical activities.
