There are already many ion detection methods available, and their development in long-term application practice has become very mature, which can achieve high-precision monitoring of different ion types and ion concentrations. However, in order to meet the requirements of modern smart healthcare, portable ion continuous monitoring methods with good portability, low operational difficulty, and high detection efficiency urgently need to be developed. However, existing detection methods are far from meeting the requirements of real-time and long-term health monitoring due to factors such as detection principles. In recent years, breakthroughs have been made in miniaturized and portable ion continuous monitoring technology, among which high-sensitivity and high-specificity miniature ion sensing components and miniaturized low-power driving measurement circuits have become the main research contents of this technology. This article starts with high-performance ion sensors in the front-end and high-level integrated driving measurement circuits in the back-end, summarizes the current development of miniaturized and portable ion continuous monitoring technology, reviews its applications, and looks forward to the possible development directions of portable ion monitoring technology in the future.
