BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS: Type III achalasia is characterized by rapidly propagating pressurization attributable to spastic contractions. Although laparoscopic Heller myotomy (LHM) is the current gold standard management for type III achalasia, peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM) is conceivably superior...

Development of a Flexible Strain Sensor Based on PEDOT:PSS for Thin Film Structures.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)

El Zein A, Huppé C, Cochrane C.
PMID: 28598393
Sensors (Basel). 2017 Jun 09;17(6). doi: 10.3390/s17061337.

The aim of this study was to develop and optimize a reproducible flexible sensor adapted to thin low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films and/or structures to enable their deformation measurements. As these deformations are suspected to be weak (less than 10%),...
