“…Ao revisar a literatura, Bardhan et al 21 mostrou que a termografia pode realizar essa mensuração da dor no futuro, quando forem desenvolvidos algoritmos capazes de quantificar a reação dolorosa uniformemente nos indivíduos com alterações térmicas nas mais diversas enfermidades. Como desafios estão a subjetividade da dor, o controle dos fatores ambientais durante a captura das imagens e a tecnologia das câmeras infravermelhas.…”

RESUMO Mais de 60% dos trabalhadores de enfermagem apresentam episódio de lombalgia durante um ano, provocando um impacto socioeconômico negativo, uma vez que é uma das maiores causas de faltas e afastamentos do trabalho. A auriculoterapia é uma técnica da acupuntura de baixo custo e não invasiva, que utiliza o pavilhão auricular como um microssistema do organismo humano mapeado por pontos que, estimulados, podem tratar diversas enfermidades. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi verificar a eficácia da auriculoterapia com sementes de mostarda (Brassica juncea) na melhora da dor, na funcionalidade e na mobilidade lombar de profissionais técnicos e auxiliares de enfermagem do sexo feminino com dor lombar crônica. Foi realizado um ensaio clínico randomizado cego, dividido em dois grupos: um utilizou sementes de mostarda para acupressão nos pontos auriculares “Shen-Men”, “Rim”, “Simpático” e “Coluna Lombar” e o grupo placebo utilizou espuma de poliuretano de baixa densidade no lugar das sementes. Cada grupo realizou quatro sessões de auriculoterapia, uma vez por semana. Os grupos foram analisados por meio de termogramas infravermelhos e algometria por pressão para a dor, a medida dedo-chão para mobilidade e Questionário Roland-Morris para funcionalidade da coluna, com intervalo de confiança de 95%. A auriculoterapia com sementes de mostarda reduziu a temperatura média nos termogramas analisados em 0,8°C, bem como, aumentou o limiar de dor à pressão na coluna lombar das voluntárias em 0,4 Kgf, o que demonstra uma melhora significativa da dor lombar. Portanto, a auriculoterapia com sementes de mostarda mostrou-se eficaz na melhora da dor lombar.

Pain is an unpleasant subjective experience. At present, clinicians are using self-report or pain scales to recognise and monitor pain in children. However, these techniques are not efficient to observe the pain in children having cognitive disorder and also require highly skilled observers to measure pain. Using these techniques it is also difficult to choose the analgesic drug dosages to the patients after surgery. Thus, this conceptual work explains the demand for automatic coding techniques to evaluate pain and also it documents some evidence of techniques that act as an alternative approach for objectively determining pain in children. In this review, some good indicators of pain in children are explained in detail; they are facial expressions from an RGB image, thermal image and also feature from well proven physiological signals such as electrocardiogram, skin conductance, body temperature, surgical pleth index, pupillary reflex dilation, analgesia nociception index, photoplethysmography, perfusion index etc.

“…It might be due to the reason of casting pressure, improper application of casting or slippage of casting in the treatment phase or improper fitting of foot abduction orthosis in the maintenance phase of Ponseti method. Recently, Infrared thermography (IRT) has been used as popular additional diagnostic tool to assess the skin temperature or pattern of thermal distribution in response to various therapeutic procedures, and musculoskeletal disorders (Bardhan et al, 2015 ; Packer et al, 2015 ; Kwok et al, 2017 ). The in-depth understanding of thermal distribution in clubfoot before and after casting intervention is necessary to increase the success rate of intervention and to reduce the complications.…”

Developing a Three-Dimensional (3D) Assessment Method for Clubfoot—A Study Protocol

Background: Congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV) or clubfoot is a common pediatric congenital foot deformity that occurs 1 in 1,000 live births. Clubfoot is characterized by four types of foot deformities: hindfoot equinus; midfoot cavus; forefoot adductus; and hindfoot varus. A structured assessment method for clubfoot is essential for quantifying the initial severity of clubfoot deformity and recording the progress of clubfoot intervention.Aim: This study aims to develop a three-dimensional (3D) assessment method to evaluate the initial severity of the clubfoot and monitor the structural changes of the clubfoot after each casting intervention. In addition, this study explores the relationship between the thermophysiological changes in the clubfoot at each stage of the casting intervention and in the normal foot.Methods: In this study, a total of 10 clubfoot children who are <2 years old will be recruited. Also, the data of the unaffected feet of a total of 10 children with unilateral clubfoot will be obtained as a reference for normal feet. A Kinect 3D scanner will be used to collect the 3D images of the clubfoot and normal foot, and an Infrared thermography camera (IRT camera) will be used to collect the thermal images of the clubfoot. Three-dimensional scanning and IR imaging will be performed on the foot once a week before casting. In total, 6–8 scanning sessions will be performed for each child participant. The following parameters will be calculated as outcome measures to predict, monitor, and quantify the severity of the clubfoot: Angles cross section parameters, such as length, width, and the radial distance; distance between selected anatomical landmarks, and skin temperature of the clubfoot and normal foot. The skin temperature will be collected on selected areas (forefoot, mid foot, and hindfoot) to find out the relationship between the thermophysiological changes in the clubfoot at each stage of the casting treatment and in the normal foot.Ethics: The study has been reviewed and approved on 17 August 2016 by the Sydney Children's Hospitals Network Human Research Ethics Committee (SCHN HREC), Sydney, Australia. The Human Research Ethics Committee (HREC) registration number for this study is: HREC/16/SCHN/163.
