Condition: Wound Infection and Wound Healing · Sponsor: Brigham and Women's Hospital
The investigators want to explore the use of a smartphone app that allows patients to take photos of their wounds in early stages of healing, so that clinicians can monitor wound-healing remotely with the assistance of an AI program. Participants will choose whether they want to be in the control group or the app group. Participants in the app group will be asked to download an app on their personal smartphone before their surgery. After the procedure, participants will upload a photo of their surgery site as well as answer some questions about its characteristics either on a daily or weekly basis. A healthcare provider and the app's AI algorithm will observe this information to determine the risk of infection. Participants in the control group will not be asked to use the app. Their medical record will be monitored by study staff intermittently to see if they develop infection. This study will take approximately 16 weeks.
