Non-invasive Technologies of Tissue Viability Measurement for Pressure Ulcer Prevention in Spinal Cord Injury

Abstract: Developing Pressure Ulcer (PU) is one of the most common devastating complications following Spinal Cord Injury (SCI). Following SCI, loss of sensation and mobility alongside changes in circulation leads to elevated risk of developing PU. Once a PU is formed, it significantly increases the burden on the individual with SCI individual and/or the caregivers and has substantial detrimental impact on the quality of life, independence, and dignity of a patient. Apart from personal consequences, PU also represents a… Show more

“…20 The ability to attach the probe for long durations raises the possibility of ptc O 2 and ptc CO 2 continuous flap monitoring. 20 56 57 58 59 Combined ptc O 2 and ptc CO 2 monitoring has also shown promise in selecting the number and duration of leech therapy. 60 While ptc O 2 and ptc CO 2 have been measured together, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.…”

“…Additionally, Chowdhury developed an amplitude modulated ultrasonic method with an infrared technique [ 6 , 17 ]. The method of measuring Hb by spectrophotometry has included use of several wavelengths, such as 532 nm [ 18 ], 542 or 574 nm with 900 nm [ 19 , 20 ], 545 nm [ 20 ], 660 nm [ 21 , 22 ], 600–750 nm [ 23 , 24 ], 700 nm [ 25 , 26 ], 760 nm [ 20 , 26 ], 850–1000 nm [ 23 , 24 ], and 940 nm [ 22 , 27 ]. This method has a high degree of accuracy, is painless (there is no need to injure the patient), has lower variable costs, can be used repeatedly, and has no consumable costs.…”
