Embodiment Construction

[0023] In order to assess skin condition to provide a single and consistent score to an institution or company, the methods described herein are provided to provide such a score. In use, the method is applied to a plurality of individuals within an institution. A score indicative of their skin condition was assigned to each individual. Scores from multiple individuals can be combined to provide scores for groups of users or even for the entire institution conducting the test. Thus, the present invention provides an objective measure for a user or target group, such as a company or institution. Because scores are combined in an objective and consistent manner, they can be compared to previous scores to measure changes over time. The score can also be compared with other target institutions to confirm best practice.

[0024] Thus, the score provides a single and easily monitored indicator of skin health (especially hand health) to the user or to an entire institution. Additi...

Abstract

A method of determining a skin health score for a first subject, the method comprising the steps of assessing the health of the skin of a subject using a plurality of measurement systems, each of theplurality of measurement systems configured to provide a first score characteristic of the health of the skin of the subject as determined by said measurement system, and calculating a second score based on a combination of each of the plurality of first scores, said second score indicative of a skin health score for the first subject.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of assessing the condition of the skin. In particular, the method may calculate a score for an individual, group or facility to allow identification of best practices and analysis of trends in skin conditions over time. Background technique [0002] Monitoring of best hygiene practices is known to reduce infection rates in healthcare settings. Such monitoring can be done in real time or as a series of point measurements over time so that trends can be identified. This monitoring principle also applies to skin care, where monitoring of the correct use of skin care products can help identify and prevent skin conditions. This is particularly relevant in occupational settings, where workers may be exposed to many different products that may affect the worker's skin condition. Occupational dermatitis in workers is known to cause said workers to take time off work, so it would be desirable to be able to monitor oc...
