Preventing pressure ulcers by increasing pressure: An unorthodox alternating-pressure mattress.

Science robotics
Despite the devastating effects of pressure ulcers (PUs), little is understood about how they can be prevented using alternating-pressure (AP) mattresses. Such mattresses typically aim to minimize the pressures imparted while alternating between diff...

Convolutional Neural Network Models for Visual Classification of Pressure Ulcer Stages: Cross-Sectional Study.

JMIR medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Pressure injuries (PIs) pose a negative health impact and a substantial economic burden on patients and society. Accurate staging is crucial for treating PIs. Owing to the diversity in the clinical manifestations of PIs and the lack of ob...

Explainable SHAP-XGBoost models for pressure injuries among patients requiring with mechanical ventilation in intensive care unit.

Scientific reports
pressure injuries are significant concern for ICU patients on mechanical ventilation. Early prediction is crucial for enhancing patient outcomes and reducing healthcare costs. This study aims to develop a predictive model using machine learning techn...

Machine learning based finite element analysis for personalized prediction of pressure injury risk in patients with spinal cord injury.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Patients with spinal cord injury (SCI), are prone to pressure injury (PI) in the soft tissues of buttocks. Early prediction of PI holds the potential to reduce the occurrence and progression of PI. This study proposes a mach...

Development and application of an intelligent pressure injury assessment system using AI image recognition.

Technology and health care : official journal of the European Society for Engineering and Medicine
BackgroundPressure injuries are a significant concern in clinical settings, requiring accurate assessment to prevent complications. Traditional assessment methods are often subjective and time-consuming.ObjectiveThis study aimed to develop and evalua...

A novel technique for rapid determination of pressure injury stages using intelligent machine vision.

Geriatric nursing (New York, N.Y.)
A developed intelligent machine vision system combined with deep-learning algorithms was attempted to determine pressure injury (PI) stages rapidly. A total of 500 images were selected according to the color and texture characteristics of probable PI...

A Predictive Model of Pressure Injury in Children Undergoing Living Donor Liver Transplantation Based on Machine Learning Algorithm.

Journal of advanced nursing
AIMS: The aim of our study was to formulate and validate a prediction model using machine learning algorithms to forecast the risk of pressure injuries (PIs) in children undergoing living donor liver transplantation (LDLT).

Preventing postoperative moderate- and high-risk pressure injuries with artificial intelligence-powered smart decompression mattress on in middle-aged and elderly patients: a retrospective cohort analysis.

British journal of hospital medicine (London, England : 2005)
Artificial intelligence technology has attained rapid development in recent years. The integration of artificial intelligence applications into pressure reduction mattresses, giving rise to artificial intelligence-powered pressure reduction mattress...

Smart Cushions with Machine Learning-Enhanced Force Sensors for Pressure Injury Risk Assessment.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
Prolonged sitting can easily result in pressure injury (PI) for certain people who have had strokes or spinal cord injuries. There are not many methods available for tracking contact surface pressure and shear force to evaluate the PI risk. Here, we ...

An ingenious deep learning approach for pressure injury depth evaluation with limited data.

Journal of tissue viability
BACKGROUND: The development of models using deep learning (DL) to assess pressure injuries from wound images has recently gained attention. Creating enough supervised data is important for improving performance but is time-consuming. Therefore, the d...
