Introduction: ChitoTech Inc., has developed a mobile application for android and iOS platforms, and desktop PCs, that provides continuous assessment of wound size and wound healing progress. HealApp can provide continuous monitoring at hospitals, wound care centers, and even at patients’ homes allowing clinicians to do follow-up care remotely with accurate information provided by HealApp. Method: HealApp takes pictures by mobile camera then, evaluate the size, shape and color of the wound using artificial intelligence (AI) and tracks the changes taking place in the patient’s wound. The wound image and results are reported to medical team and they recommend appropriate medication to the patient, based on the received information. Results: The image is showing the topology, shape, color, and size of the wound then analyzed by HealApp to report the wound healing progress. HealApp combines these results with the patient‘s clinical information which entered to the software before, then assists the clinicians to diagnose the wound faster and more accurately.
