Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: The effective assessment of wounds, both acute and hard-to-heal, is an important component in the delivery by wound care practitioners of efficacious wound care for patients. Improved wound diagnosis, optimising wound treatment regimens, and enhanced prevention of wounds aid in providing patients with a better quality of life (QoL). There is significant potential for the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in health-related areas such as wound care. However, AI-based systems remain to be developed to a point where they can be used clinically to deliver high-quality wound care. We have carried out a narrative review of the development and use of AI in the diagnosis, assessment and treatment of hard-to-heal wounds. We retrieved 145 articles from several online databases and other online resources, and 81 of them were included in this narrative review. Our review shows that AI application in wound care offers benefits in the assessment/diagnosis, monitoring and treatment of acute and hard-to-heal wounds. As well as offering patients the potential of improved QoL, AI may also enable better use of healthcare resources.
摘要:
■对伤口的有效评估,既急性又难以治愈,是伤口护理从业者为患者提供有效伤口护理的重要组成部分。改善伤口诊断,优化伤口治疗方案,和增强的伤口预防有助于为患者提供更好的生活质量(QoL)。人工智能(AI)在伤口护理等健康相关领域的应用潜力巨大。然而,基于AI的系统仍有待开发到可以在临床上用于提供高质量伤口护理的程度。我们对AI在诊断中的发展和使用进行了叙述性回顾,难以愈合的伤口的评估和治疗。我们从几个在线数据库和其他在线资源中检索了145篇文章,其中81人被纳入本叙述性审查。我们的评论显示,人工智能在伤口护理中的应用在评估/诊断方面提供了好处,监测和治疗急性和难以愈合的伤口。除了为患者提供改善QoL的潜力外,AI还可以更好地利用医疗保健资源。
