Multicenter Study Protocol: Research on Evaluation and Detection of Surgical Wound Complications with AI-Based Recognition (REDSCAR-Trial)

Abstract

[eng] The increasing use of telemedicine in surgical care has shown promise in improving patient outcomes and optimizing healthcare resources. Surgical site infections (SSIs) are a major cause of healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), leading to significant economic and health burdens. A pilot study already demonstrated that RedScar© achieved 100% sensitivity and 83.13% specificity in detecting SSIs. Patients reported high satisfaction regarding comfort, cost-effectiveness, and reduced absenteeism.
