Sepsis & infection

A proof of concept for microcirculation monitoring using machine learning based hyperspectral imaging in critically ill patients: a monocentric observational study

Crit CarePublished Diagnostic accuracy study

Authors' conclusion

Based on this proof of concept, the integration of automated and standardized ROIs along with automated skin HSI analyzes, was able to differentiate between healthy individuals and patients with sepsis.

Study context

Population
Critically ill patients with sepsis in intensive care and healthy controls
Participants
75 vs 30
Comparison
Sepsis vs Healthy controls
  • Sepsisn = 75
  • Healthy controlsn = 30reference
Outcome
Automated ML identification of hand regions of interest (ROIs) to distinguish healthy individuals from critically ill sepsis patients using HSI
