Abstract
Background:
Auricular keloids pose significant clinical challenges due to their high recurrence rates, cosmetic impact, and potential discomfort for patients. Compression or pressure therapy by splinting as adjunct treatment has been reported to be effective. An innovative application of 3D scanning and printing technology as well as pressure sensors to increase the precision of splint fitting, thereby shortening the therapist-patient contact time and reducing the frequency of clinic visits.The aim of this study is to explore the feasibility of technology applications to improve the efficiency and comfort level for patients in auricular keloid management.
