Claim 0:
1. 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 plurality of sensors configured to measure one or more wound characteristics, wherein the plurality of sensors are arranged on a string of sensors, wherein the plurality of sensors are positioned on a wound-facing surface of the string of sensors so that the plurality of sensors comes into contact with the wound, wherein the string of sensors is configured to be curved about itself when positioned within the wound; and
a plurality of conductive tracks interconnecting the plurality of sensors, the plurality of conductive tracks configured to maintain connectivity when the wound dressing has been stretched;

at least one positioning device configured to indicate position and/or orientation in the wound of a first sensor of the plurality of sensors; and
a detector configured to determine, based on the indicated position and/or orientation, the position and/or orientation in the wound of the first sensor of the plurality of sensors.
