Devices and methods for encapsulating a portion of a wound dressing with biocompatible coating are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method includes applying a first coating on a first side of a flexible substrate of the wound dressing. The first side of the substrate can support a plurality of electronic components, electronic tracks, and connectors between the electronic components and electronic tracks. The first coating can be applied to at least one connectors. The application of the first coating can strengthen the at least one connector. The method can further include applying a secondbiocompatible coating on the first side of the substrate of the wound dressing and coating a second side of the substrate opposite the first side with a third coating, and coating at least some of theplurality of the electronic components with a fourth coating. 本发明公开了用于用生物相容性涂层包封伤口敷料的一部分的装置和方法。在一些实施例中，方法包括在伤口敷料的柔性基底的第一侧上施加第一涂层。基底的第一侧可以支撑多个电子部件、电子轨迹以及电子部件与电子轨迹之间的连接器。第一涂层可以施加到至少一个连接器。施加第一涂层可以加强至少一个连接器。所述方法还可以包括：在伤口敷料的基底的第一侧
