Claim 17:
18. A wound monitoring and/or therapy system, comprising:
a wound dressing configured to be positioned in contact with a wound, the wound dressing comprising:
a sensor support material comprising a plurality of sensors on a linear sensor strip configured to measure one or more wound characteristics, wherein sensor support material comprises an extendable material, wherein the plurality of sensors are configured to be positioned in at least one of the wound or an area surrounding the wound and the plurality of sensors are positioned on a wound-facing surface of the sensor support material so that the plurality of sensors comes into contact with the wound, the sensor support material comprising a plurality of conductive tracks positioned on the sensor support material interconnecting the plurality of sensors, the plurality of conductive tracks configured to maintain connectivity when the wound dressing has been stretched;
wherein the sensor support material comprises a plurality of slits positioned between at least two adjacent tracks, positioned between at least two adjacent sensors, or positioned between at least one track and at least one adjacent sensor.
