Abstract
This article presents a mobile application model for the treatment tracking of in-hospital wounds. A survey of the literature on mobile apps for wound monitoring was carried out. Health professionals were interviewed and wound forms were analyzed to synthesize the application's fields and features. We designed the application model using a prototyping tool. The prototype features interfaces for patient evaluation, different functionalities according to the role of the health professional, a dashboard for monitoring the open admissions, selection of wound locations using a body model, treatment prescribing, tracking the wounds using photos, and generating wound reports. The adoption of this application could optimize wounds' treatment, increase patient safety, reduce material expenditures and time for professionals with rework in the dressing procedure.
