An app that can track the progression of bed sores using artificial intelligence technology is helping nurses quickly diagnose and treat the painful condition that affects 2.2 million Britons every year.
Untreated bed sores – painful ulcers on the skin typically brought on by prolonged pressure – can damage muscle and bone, eventually requiring surgery.
