Handheld infrared thermography for triage of LVAD driveline infection: A prospective pilot diagnostic accuracy study

Background: Existing approaches to diagnose driveline infections (DLI) in patients with durable left ventricular assist devices (LVADs) differ in speed, cost, and specificity. Handheld infrared thermography may support DLI through rapid, easy, non-contact triage by detecting local temperature elevat...
