Quantifying bedside-derived imaging of microcirculatory abnormalities in septic patients: a prospective validation study

摘要

IntroductionThe introduction of orthogonal polarization spectral (OPS) imaging in clinical research has elucidated new perspectives on the role of microcirculatory flow abnormalities in the pathogenesis of sepsis. Essential to the process of understanding and reproducing these abnormalities is the method of quantification of flow scores.
