Utilizing 3D Imaging for Burn Wound Assessment

Description

The goal of this prospective cohort study is to determine if the DermaMonitor camera can accurately determine burn size in patients with 1st, 2nd, or 3rd degree burns, with exploratory aim of testing a new Artificial Intelligence (AI) program for determining burn depth. The main aims are: 1. The primary aim of this study is to assess an objective process for the classification of burn size using the DermaMonitor wound camera. 2. An exploratory aim of this study is to begin to train an Artificial Intelligence (AI) program to classify burn depth (1st, 2nd, 3rd degree) using the 3D images from this novel wound camera. Researchers will compare DermaMonitor size classification and AI depth classification to clinician determinations. Participants will have images taken of their burn. Participation ends when the images are taken.

Conditions

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

For general information about clinical research, read Learn About Studies.

Eligibility Criteria

  • * Adults sustaining burns
  • * Outpatients
  • * No prior surgery on the wounds
  • * No known infection of the wounds
  • * Burns to the face or sensitive areas (genitals)
  • * Burns located on or near identifying landmarks such as tattoos or birthmarks
  • * Non-English speaking patients
  • * Patients unable to sign their name
  • * Burn occurred greater than 7 days prior to clinic visit
  • * Age greater than 90 (Patient age is sent externally to IKO, to ensure no PHI is sent, patients with an age \>90 will not be enrolled)
