Abstract

The provided systems, methods and devices describe lightweight, wireless tissue monitoring devices that are capable of establishing conformal contact due to the flexibility or bendability of the device. The described systems and devices are useful, for example, for skin-mounted intraoperative monitoring of nerve-muscle activity. The present systems and methods are versatile and may be used for a variety of tissues (e.g. skin, organs, muscles, nerves, etc.) to measure a variety of different parameters (e.g. electric signals, electric potentials, electromyography, movement, vibration, acoustic signals, response to various stimuli, etc.).
