Hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPIs) are common complications that impact patient outcomes and strain healthcare resources. The Braden Scale is the standard tool for assessing HAPI risk, but it has limitations, including a high false-positive ...
OBJECTIVE: To develop a generalizable and accurate method for automatically analyzing wound images captured in clinical practice and extracting key wound characteristics such as surface area measurement.
This study investigates the use of machine learning (ML) models combined with a Synthetic Minority Over-sampling Technique (SMOTE) and its variants to predict perioperative pressure injuries (PIs) in an imbalanced dataset. PIs are a significant healt...
INTRODUCTION: Wound care is an essential discipline in plastic surgery, especially as the prevalence of chronic wounds, such as pressure injuries, is increasing. The escalating volume of patient data and the numerous variables influencing wound outco...
This study reports the first steps toward establishing a computer vision system to help caregivers of bedridden patients detect pressure ulcers (PUs) early. While many previous studies have focused on using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to ele...

Clinical decision support systems for Nursing Process (NP-CDSSs) help resolve a critical challenge in nursing decision-making through automating the Nursing Process. NP-CDSSs are more effective when they are linked to Electronic Medical Record (EMR) ...
OBJECTIVE: Accurate assessment of pressure injuries (PIs) is necessary for a good outcome. Junior and non-specialist nurses have less experience with PIs and lack clinical practice, and so have difficulty staging them accurately. In this work, a deep...
