Remote wound monitoring for chronic wounds using a smartphone app
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study tests whether using a smartphone app to monitor chronic wounds at home—like diabetic foot ulcers, leg ulcers, or pressure sores—improves care and reduces costs. You'll photograph your wound regularly at home and share images with your healthcare team.
