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

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

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/

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients with stage 1 pressure injury
• Patients with high risk of developing pressure injury

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patients with stage 2 pressure injury or higher
