Infrared Thermal Imaging as a Method of Improving Skin Graft Qualification Procedure and Skin Graft Survivability.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Appropriate wound classification (evaluation of skin damage depth) is a key element in the first days after the burn injury. In this study, we used a thermovision system to evaluate the degree of burn wound shortly after injury and the regenerative process of engraftment of autologous split-thickness skin grafts (STSGs). The results were referenced to wound assessment made by a physician. METHODS:Twenty-one patients with STSGs were included in the study. The analysis of the dependence between the assessment of burn depth obtained with the use of numeric models (thermovision examination) and clinical assessment by physicians was conducted. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) was performed. RESULTS:The study demonstrated that thermovision images allowed physicians a deeper assessment of burns. Decrease in the temperature difference was observed in subsequent measurements. Temperature increase during normal graft healing was observed. Graft vascularization was confirmed by CTA. CONCLUSION:Thermovision may be useful in assessment of the clinical condition of burn wounds and monitoring of wound healing progress.
