Sub-epidermal moisture assessment as an adjunct to visual assessment in the reduction of pressure ulcer incidence

Karen Ousey et al.

Summary: This study assessed the effectiveness of sub-epidermal moisture (SEM) assessment technology as an adjunct to visual assessment to reduce pressure ulcer (PU) incidence. The results showed that the implementation of this technology was associated with a significant reduction in the incidence of Category 2 or above PUs across various clinical settings.

Measuring subepidermal moisture to detect early pressure ulcer development: a systematic review

Zena Moore et al.

Summary: Through a review of relevant studies, it was found that measuring subepidermal moisture (SEM) can detect the development of pressure ulcers (PUs) earlier, and when staff respond to abnormal SEM measurements, it can enhance PU prevention strategies, leading to a reduction in visible PU development.

Prevalence, associated factors and outcomes of pressure injuries in adult intensive care unit patients: the DecubICUs study

Sonia O. Labeau et al.

Summary: A study of 13,254 adults in 1117 ICUs across 90 countries found a high prevalence of pressure injuries, with 59.2% being ICU-acquired. Risk factors for ICU-acquired pressure injuries included age, sex, weight, comorbidities, and organ support. Increasing severity of pressure injuries was associated with higher mortality rates, highlighting the importance of prevention and proper care in ICU settings.

Evaluating the sensitivity, specificity and clinical utility of algorithms of spatial variation in sub-epidermal moisture (SEM) for the diagnosis of deep and early-stage pressure induced tissue damage

Steve Gershon et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the sensitivity, specificity, and clinical utility of spatial variation in sub-epidermal moisture readings between healthy and damaged skin tissue for detecting early pressure-induced injuries. Results showed significant differences in SEM measures within damaged tissue anatomies, but not in healthy subjects. Algorithms indicated a sensitivity of 82-87% and a specificity of 51-88% at an SEM delta >= 0.6, exceeding clinical judgement.

Clinical impact of a sub-epidermal moisture scanner: what is the real-world use?

Louisa Musa et al.

Summary: In this study, the SEM Scanner device seamlessly integrated into routine skin assessments and facilitated early identification of tissue damage risk, leading to significant reductions in HAPU incidence rates across all participating sites. The device had a notable impact on clinical decision-making related to HAPU, with changes in decision-making reported in various care settings.

Clinical profile of the SEM Scanner - Modernizing pressure injury care pathways using Sub-Epidermal Moisture (SEM) scanning

Ruth A. Bryant et al.

Summary: The SEM Scanner is the first device authorized by the FDA to objectively assess early-stage pressure-induced tissue damage, providing a way for healthcare professionals to intervene before visible signs of tissue damage develop. FDA clearance was based on bench studies and data from three foundational trials, demonstrating the device's diagnostic accuracy significantly exceeding clinical judgment.

Evaluating the impact on hospital acquired pressure injury/ulcer incidence in a United Kingdom NHS Acute Trust from use of sub-epidermal scanning technology

Pippa Nightingale et al.

Summary: Implementing scanning technology into routine clinical practice achieves consistent reductions in pressure injury/ulcer incidence. Study results showed an 81% reduction in pressure injury/ulcer incidence across all four wards, with 83% of patients reporting improved clinical decisions based on Sub-Epidermal Moisture (SEM) Scanner data.
