Abstract
The present invention provides a sensitive, accurate, bioactive skin barrier/wafer usable in ostomy systems and wound drainage collectors for identification of pathogens at critical thresholds of presence on peristomal skin at stoma sites and exuding wounds before clinical signs and symptoms of infection present. A method of fabricating a bioactive skin barrier/wafer intended for identification of pathogen presence in ostomy systems is provided, that delivers a rapid response observable alert. The present invention utilizes biomarkers to detect pathogens in real time, where biomarkers are characteristics objectively measured as indicators of health, disease, or a response to an exposure or intervention, including therapeutic interventions.
