Abstract

A wound treatment apparatus can include a wound dressing configured to be positioned proximate to a wound. Multiple optical fibers positioned at least partly in the wound dressing can include a first optical fiber and a second optical fiber. The wound treatment apparatus can include an emitter and a detector. The emitter can emit first electromagnetic radiation into the first optical fiber so that the first optical fiber passes the first electromagnetic radiation. The detector can generate a signal responsive to second electromagnetic radiation that exits the second optical fiber and contacts the detector.
