All the surgical bandages, extracorporeal devices, and prosthetic implants that we use today are the product of textiles. Because they conform well to the body and feel good against the skin. Woven, non-woven, and knitted are only textile fabric construction methods. Among all, the knitted structures are more breathable and simpler to produce. In the previous two decades, knitting technology has advanced, now it is simple to create customized flexible and cost-effective biomedical devices. Knitted structures are increasingly used in implantable textiles like hernia and heart patches etc. due to their comfort, optimal strength, and ability to ravel from the last loop. The porous structure of knitted fabrics is particularly well suited for the transport of drugs. Since the knitted pattern, yarn effect, and dimensional parameters of fabric are all displayed in the 3D simulation software like Apex-lll and M-1, there is no longer any need to use actual fabric for quality control purposes, which greatly aids in reducing fabric waste. This article offers recent research on knitted fabrics including their advantages, disadvantages and future solutions that could be achieved by using advanced knitting manufacturing technologies. In addition, it calls attention to the significance of knitted structure in biomedical applications which may motivate further research into materials of this kind in the future.
