DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): About 80% of hospital patients in the United States require IV therapy and 50% of IV lines fail due to infiltration, a clot in the cannula, an inflammatory response of the vein, or separation of the cannula from the vein. IV infiltration is usually accompanied by pain, erythema, and swelling at the cannula tip or the insertion site. Severe infiltration may lead to necrosis requiring skin debridement, skin grafting, or amputation. Early detection of infiltration prevents the occurrence of serious incidents that may require surgical correction. The long-term objective of this project is to develop an infiltration sensor for monitoring IV failures. The Phase II research design includes the development of an advanced prototype, improvement of algorithms, evaluation of the prototype on animal models and human measurements, investigation of its accuracy and utility, and the examination of the commercial potential. The innovation of this project lies in the use of an optical method coupled with the advanced development in fiber optics and algorithms for tissue optics to provide a means for noninvasive monitoring of the IV sites. It will provide routine, automated, continuous, and real-time monitoring capabilities for patients undergoing IV therapy.

描述（由申请人提供）：在美国，约80%的住院患者需要IV治疗，50%的IV管路由于渗透、插管中的凝块、静脉的炎症反应或插管与静脉分离而失效。IV浸润通常伴有插管尖端或插入部位的疼痛、红斑和肿胀。严重浸润可能导致坏死，需要皮肤清创、植皮或截肢。浸润的早期检测可防止可能需要手术矫正的严重事件的发生。该项目的长期目标是开发一种用于监测IV故障的渗透传感器。第二阶段的研究设计包括开发先进的原型，改进算法，在动物模型和人体测量上评估原型，调查其准确性和实用性，以及检查商业潜力。该项目的创新在于使用光学方法，结合光纤的先进发展和组织光学算法，为IV部位的无创监测提供了一种手段。它将为接受IV治疗的患者提供常规、自动化、连续和实时监测能力。
