Feasibility to Measure Tissue Oxygen Saturation Using Textile-Integrated Polymer Optical Fibers

Tissue oxygen saturation (StO ) is a crucial factor in the aetiology of pressure injury (PI), since hypoxia leads to necrotization. Pressure on the tissue occludes blood circulation and reduces the StO , resulting in hypoxia. PI causes severe suffering, heals slowly and is expensive to treat. Hence...
