This federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (CFDA 93.865 - Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research) aims to improve strategies for post-cesarean surgical site infection (SSI) monitoring by validating and updating two existing image-based diagnostic algorithms. The $741,747 award will support the prospective follow-up of 6,000 women across three countries (Rwanda, Ghana, and Mexico) to assess the generalizability of the existing visible image and thermal image algorithms, retrain the algorithms to improve predictive properties across diverse populations, and explore the need for later SSI monitoring and the ability to predict delayed SSIs using images captured at postoperative day 10. The project will involve collaboration with sub-awardees Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Massachusetts General Hospital, who will provide clinical expertise, data analysis support, and algorithm development services.
