Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A wound dressing system configured to determine an exudate uptake pattern of a wound dressing is disclosed. The wound dressing system comprises a wound dressing and a monitor device. The wound dressing comprises an absorbent core layer, a proximal electrode assembly comprising a first plurality of electrodes, and a distal electrode assembly comprising a second plurality of electrodes. The monitor device of the wound dressing system is configured to detect a short-circuiting event across a primary and a secondary electrode of the first/second plurality of electrodes. Further, the monitor device is configured to indicate an exudate uptake pattern of the wound dressing based on the short-circuiting events. Thereby, an optimum or improved use of the wound dressing is enabled and facilitated. Further disclosed is a sensor pack for a wound dressing system and a method for determining an exudate uptake pattern of a wound dressing.
