The electronic tattoo that can monitor patient symptoms remotely
Scientists have developed a flexible circuit board that can be printed directly on to skin to
transmit data back to a doctor
[[ Repeat trips to the doctor could become a thing of the past thanks to a new technology
that can monitor your health and well-being remotely – directly from the surface of your
skin. Researchers at the University of Illinois have developed an electronic tattoo that can be
printed straight on to the body to track patients' symptoms – measuring heart rate and
temperature, strain and hydration – and then beam the information back to your doctor. It
might sound like something from Brave New World, but this could be the first step in a future
of networked healthcare.
The project, pioneered by materials scientist John Rogers, is the latest development in
ongoing work into flexible "epidermal electronics". His team have previously engineered
stick-on stretchable electronic circuits with an elastic backing, which could simply be applied
to the skin like a temporary tattoo – but with the downside that they could easily wash off.
"They were fine for an office environment," Rogers told the MIT Technology Review, "but if
you wanted to go swimming or take a shower they weren't able to hold up."
The researchers have now developed a technique to print circuits directly on to human flesh
with a rubber stamp, which can then be covered with a spray-on bandage to form a protective
coating. The ultra-thin electronics operate like a standard computer circuit board – with
electrodes, sensors and wireless communication systems – but are made up of a matrix of
stretchy, serpentine wires [a wire = un fil ] that flex with the movement of the body. By
removing the elastic backing, the device is now one thirtieth as thick as before, and can adapt
more easily to the rough surface of the skin. ]]
Rogers sees one of the major applications being the ability to monitor wound healing, with an
electronic tattoo applied close to the surgical wound before the patient leaves hospital,
allowing doctors to track the healing process remotely. As Wired magazine reports, the
devices could also see patients sent home from surgery with a monitoring system that does
the job of several heavy-duty machines, such as electro myographs and electrocardiograms,
that are usually confined to hospitals.
Those fearing a Big Brother future of bar-coded proles will be relieved to hear that the tattoos
can only be worn for around two weeks, before the skin's natural exfoliation process causes
them to flake off.

L'appellation "restaurant" sème la zizanie
Réserver le nom de "restaurant" aux seuls établissements qui cuisinent sur place: cette
proposition d'un syndicat de la restauration pourrait apporter une clarification bienvenue aux
clients, mais elle suscite une levée de boucliers dans le secteur.
Le Synhorcat souhaite que le consommateur puisse choisir son restaurant en connaissance de
cause, entre ceux qui font le choix de la qualité et ceux qui font du simple réchauffage ou
assaisonnement de produits industriels.
Il propose de limiter l'appellation "restaurant" aux seuls lieux où le repas est cuisiné sur place à
partir majoritairement de produits bruts, ces derniers pouvant être congelés ou sous vide.
Un restaurant "ça veut dire qu'on a des cuisiniers qui élaborent des recettes et qui les font, face à
ceux qui ont pris la décision de couper des sacs et de les réchauffer", indique à l'AFP Alain
Fontaine, propriétaire du restaurant Le Mesturet à Paris, qui emploie 12 cuisiniers.
Cette initiative est soutenue par une proposition de loi, qui devrait être examinée en juin comme
amendement au projet de loi sur la consommation.
Ses promoteurs veulent imiter le succès de l'appellation "boulangerie", réservée depuis 1995 aux
établissements qui assurent sur place la fabrication du pain du pétrissage à la cuisson, pour les
distinguer des grandes surfaces.
Mais six syndicats concurrents ont fait état jeudi de leur "opposition massive" à la création d'une
appellation "restaurant" restrictive.
