Summary

This study tested whether using a video to measure capillary refill time (how fast skin color returns after pressing it) is more reliable than the usual visual method. Researchers compared results from different doctors and the same doctor at different times in 59 ICU patients. The goal was to see if the video method gives more consistent measurements.
