Optical assessment of skin blood content and oxygenation...This article first appeared in Bedsore Biomechanics and is reproduced by kind permission of Palgrave Macmillan, Macmillan Publishers Ltd

The alteration of blood flow in the skin and subcutaneous tissue due to mechanical loading is of great importance in the prevention of decubitus ulcers. A technique is described for assessing changes in blood content optically. The results indicate that such changes occur after loading even though t...

      ab: The alteration of blood flow in the skin and subcutaneous tissue due to mechanical loading is of great importance in the prevention of decubitus ulcers. A technique is described for assessing changes in blood content optically. The results indicate that such changes occur after loading even though the deformation is maintained constant.
