The diagnosis of early pressure sores: report of the pilot study.

Thirty-four vascular and general surgical patients were recruited to a pilot study exploring skin blood flow using laser Doppler imaging and clinical assessment of skin erythema in relation to pressure sore development. Brief details of the results, sample size calculations and main study methodology are described in this mid-term report of the Tissue Viability Society Research Fellowship (1998-2000).
