Assessment of the Potential for Pressure Ulcer Formation Using a New Optical Imaging Technology: Spatial Frequency Domain Imaging
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Pressure ulcers are a significant problem in institutionalized, elderly, and critically ill patients. Pressure ulcers result in significant pain, changing quality of life, and often leading to significant morbidity and prolonged hospital stays, and ultimately increased the healthcare cost. According to the International Pressure Ulcer Prevalence Survey, the prevalence of hospital acquired pressure ulcers in the United States was 13.5% in 2008 and 12.8% in 2009. This survey also indicated that the highest rate of pressure ulcers is in the long term acute care population (22%).
