HePh App - Smart App-based Burn Care System
2021
App
To solve the problem of 3D digitization of scald wounds and communication between doctors, nurses and patients, this study provides a smart, professional and friendly healing and care service platform for patients with burns.
Developed for burn and scald injury patients, the intelligent smartphone application "Healing Visage App" (abbreviated as HePh App) offers a blend of intelligence, professionalism, and user-friendliness in providing healing and care services. It introduces a novel digital approach to the tripartite relationship between medical professionals, caregivers, and burn injury sufferers, transforming the treatment of burns into a new digital execution mode.
The contribution of the HePh App lies in its ability to cater to the delicate physical and mental state of burn injury patients. Throughout the arduous recovery journey, the app creates a supportive environment, providing a sense of empathy, encouragement, and relaxation amid the pain. This elevated experience enhances motivation for rehabilitation and wound care. The HePh App is suitable for both hospital treatments and home care scenarios.
To address the issue of 3D digitisation of burns and communication between patients, this project provides a smart, professional and friendly platform for healing and care services for burns patients. The research team is working across the Interactive X Technology X Medical disciplines to develop a mobile device platform based on a new generation of high performance video coding technology, 3D image measurement technology and algorithms to develop an app for burn patients, and to use machine learning (ML) and big data concepts to serve the healing and care of burn patients through the mobile app as a medium. The aim of this project is to develop 3D scanning technology to reconstruct models of human body parts, to develop key algorithmic techniques for application in the field of burn medicine, and to assess the usability of the app so that hospital treatment and home care can be effectively recorded and consulted, and finally to predict the progress of wound healing through ML algorithms to achieve the goal of self-care.
The study started with the compilation of existing literature on burns and burns cases, and held focus group discussions with the patients to understand their needs and observe the care process of the users, followed by the development of the app architecture and content, the construction of 3D imaging and algorithms, and the development of 3D scanning equipment. The app was developed to meet the requirements of ease of use, usefulness of content, technology-induced errors and satisfaction. The contribution of the HePh app to this study is to care for the fragile and sensitive body and mind of the burn victim, so that the injured person can find a stratosphere during the long recovery process, be understood, encouraged and relaxed in the pain, and be motivated to recover and care for the wound. The HePh app is suitable for hospital treatment and home care, and is effective in reminding patients of the need to actively treat their wounds, accelerating their healing and self-care needs, as well as providing better medical services and quality of care in hospitals. It is hoped that this app, combined with the algorithm technology, will be adopted and promoted by other medical institutions.
