Jannu Tele Wound Care is a project aimed at facilitating teleconsultation with Jannu Ferides volunteers who are experts in wound care, regarding the care of people with complex wounds treated by health care professionals in entities or institutions in countries or settings with limited economic resources where Jannu Ferides carries out its work.
Jannu Tele Wound Care is an “ad hoc” development of the Woundify technology currently in use, which will be adapted to the specific needs of the settings in which Jannu Ferides works.
Jannu Tele Wound Care will allow access from a personal computer or a mobile phone, in a very intuitive way, to a website where healthcare professionals will be able, in English or in their local language, to:
– Register a patient and assign one episode or different wound episodes
– Systematise the collection of basic information on each episode
– Record photographs of the lesions
– Request advice on lesion treatment in an “asynchronous” context
– Monitor the evolution of the lesion
At the same time, the volunteers who advise consulting professionals will do so in their own language (Catalan, Spanish or English), with automatic translation into the consulting professional’s language.
Jannu Tele Wound Care is an adaptation of the Woundify resource, which is already used in health institutions around the world and complies with all requirements related to confidentiality and information security, forming part of a joint development with Woundify to define solutions for settings with limited economic resources and limited expertise in the care of people with wounds.
In a first phase, Jannu Ferides will implement Jannu Tele Wound Care with the support of Woundify and the NGO Nyano Angalo in a rural nursing service in Nepal and at the Kathmandu children’s hospital, as well as with the NGO B Team at Cure Hospital in Kabul, Afghanistan, within the Elena Schröder Vilar Clinic project for the care of people with wounds.
As Jannu Tele Wound Care continues to develop, further developments will be aimed at:
– Enabling consulting centres to act as reference centres in their own settings, facilitating consultation from other centres
-Promoting patient safety in skin integrity
– Defining RAG-type artificial intelligence environments with documents on recommendations and clinical practice guidelines based on scientific evidence to support clinical practice in the care of people with wounds
– Serving as a multilingual online platform for continuing education in the care of people with wounds
– Serving as a platform for conducting research on the care of people with wounds in settings with limited economic resources and limited expertise.
