Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Pressure injuries (PI) result from pressure-induced damage to the skin and underlying tissues. Currently, Stage I PI are detected using visual skin assessments. However, this visual method is unable to detect skin color changes in persons with darkly pigmented skin, which results in a higher Stage II-IV PI incidence and PI-associated mortality in persons with a darker complexion. Thus, a more objective method of early-stage PI detection is of great importance. Optical spectroscopy is a promising modality for the noncontact diagnosis and monitoring of skin water content, capable of detecting edema and Stage I PI. The scope of the current study is to assess the feasibility of imaging the water content of the skin using Si-based sensors. We have considered two primary cases: the elevated bulk water content (edema) and localized water pool (e.g., blood vessels). These two cases were analyzed using analytical models. We found that detecting the watercontent contrast associated with edema in tissues is within the reach of Si-based sensors. However, although the effect is expected to be detectable even with consumer-grade cameras, with the current state of technologies, their use in real-world conditions faces numerous technical challenges, mainly due to the narrow dynamic range.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
