    Abstract: As may be implemented with one or more embodiments herein, aspects of the disclosure are directed to an apparatus having one or more sensor circuits and a wound-characterization circuit that generates data that characterizes a condition of the wound based on physiological characteristics detected by the sensors. A wireless communication circuit wirelessly transmits the characterization data, which can be carried out while the wound is covered. In various implementations, an integration circuit (e.g., connecting circuitry and/or a chip) includes the wound-characterization circuit and the sensor circuit, and further couples to a wound dressing for sensing the different physiological characteristics of the wound while the wound dressing covers a portion of the wound from which the different physiological characteristics are sensed.
