Early Detection of Pressure Induced Tissue Damage by Infrared Spectroscopy (ODP) Device

Rambam Health Care Campus31 enrolled

Overview

The aim of this study is to demonstrate that infrared spectroscopy is able to detect pressure injuries at a very early stage

During pressure injuries formation early sub dermal bio signal appear. By applying infrared spectroscopy at a suspicions injury site on the human body and obtaining a reflected infrared light infrared allows to determine early formation of a pressure injury/

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Early detection of pressure induced tissue damage

Infrared spectroscopy will indicate on a system-defined scale (yes/no) whether or not the subject has a pressure injury

Time frame: Ten minutes

Pressure injury probability

Infrared spectroscopy will calculate using accepted statistical tools the probability of the subject getting a pressure injury within the next few days

Time frame: Ten minutes
