Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a surface-functionalized three-dimensional (3D) printed scaffold for wound healing and real-time wound monitoring. The scaffold comprises a photopolymerized polymeric matrix formed from hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA), polyethylene glycol 400, glycerol, and a photoinitiator, fabricated using a digital light processing (DLP)-based additive manufacturing process to obtain a porous lattice architecture. A bioactive composite layer comprising silicon carbide coated with hydroxyapatite and chitosan is deposited on the scaffold surface to enhance biological and antibacterial performance. A resazurin-based colorimetric sensing layer is further incorporated for pH-responsive visual monitoring of wound condition. The scaffold exhibits improved mechanical integrity, antibacterial activity, cytocompatibility, and wound healing performance. The sensing component remains substantially localized within the scaffold matrix with minimal diffusion, thereby enabling localized and real-time monitoring of wound microenvironment during tissue regeneration.
