No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Long-wave infrared imaging can be used to identify skin temperature changes associated with underlying tissue changes. We want to determine if the use of Long Wave infrared Imaging is as effective as the Braden Score in predicting nosocomial pressure ulcers.
