Description

Shreenidhi Jogi and co-authors build a phone app to support home care of pressure ulcers in a 2025 paper. Pressure injuries need steady care, often from family caregivers with little training. Phone health tools are widespread, yet few join staging, teaching, nutrition advice, and photo tracking for this problem in one place.

Their app uses a deep learning model trained on checked wound photos across six classes, from healthy skin to the deepest stage. Fixes for rare classes and subtle gaps between stages lifted the scores. A combined model reached about 97 percent accuracy, with perfect calls on the deepest stage. The authors present the app as help for caregivers and clinicians alike.
