Thermal Imaging as Surrogate to Compartment Syndrome in Orthopedic Trauma Patient

Disclaimer: The presentation of this material does not imply any endorsement or recommendation by WHO.

WHO disclaims any and all liability and responsibility whatsoever for any injury, death, loss, damage, use of personal data, or other prejudice of any kind whatsoever that may arise as a result of, or in connection with the procurement, distribution and/or use of any technology presented in the 4th WHO Global Forum on Medical Devices.

`1Introduction:• Muscle groups of the human limbs are divided into sections, or

compartments, formed by strong, unyielding fascial membranes.• Compartment syndrome occurs when increased pressure within a

compartment compromises the circulation and function of thetissues within that space.

• Common sites include the leg and forearm

Current Scenario:• Compartment Syndrome is true orthopaedic emergency as it needs

to be diagnosed within a very short duration (max 8 hours) else itleads amputations and permanent nerve and tissue damage topatients.

• Existing methods involve physical manipulation or invasivemonitoring.

• Currently, specially in India, the diagnosis is based upon theuser/doctor’s expertise.

ObjectivesDesign and development of computer aided diagnosis (CAD)system for the compartment syndrome affected patients usingthermal imaging: A Prospective Study

Methodology• Development of compartment syndrome is associated with a

reduction in surface temperature in the involved region of thebody.

• The temperature reduction can be detected by infrared imaging.• By calculating the temperature gradient, correlation can be

established to correlate and detect the compartment syndrome.

Prospective Results:To diagnosis the compartment syndrome we proposed a thermalimaging-based technique where heat profile of the involved part canbe studied

ConclusionsA reliable non-invasive screening tool to diagnose a developingcompartment syndrome would provide the opportunity to interveneearly and avoid the sequelae of a delayed diagnosis.
