No more poking! AI app sees inside wounds without contact
NCT ID NCT07211295
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a smartphone app called SeeWound 2 that uses artificial intelligence to measure the size, depth, and tissue makeup of hard-to-heal wounds. Instead of using a probe to touch the wound, the app takes a picture and calculates the measurements digitally. The study involved 25 adults with wounds from diabetes, poor circulation, or pressure, and aimed to see if the app is accurate and safe enough to replace the current invasive method.

Who is studied
ntended Use / Target Population The intended target population for SeeWound 2 comprises patients with hard-to-heal wounds. The device is designed for use by qualified healthcare professionals for the clinical assessment, documentation, and monitoring of chronic and complex wounds, including but not limited to venous leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, and pressure ulcers. SeeWound 2 is intended to support clinical decision-making by providing objective, non-invasive measurements of wound surface area and depth, and by enabling the classification and quantification of wound bed tissue composition (slough and necrosis). The product is not intended to replace clinical judgement but to serve as an adjunctive tool to standard wound care practice.

Inclusion Criteria: Older than 18 years, men and women Difficult to heal wounds due to diabetes, VLU; Pressure wounds wound larger than 0.5 cm2 Exclusion Criteria: Exclusion Criteria / Contraindications Use of SeeWound 2 is not intended for, or is contraindicated in, the following situations: Patients under 18 years of age. Wounds located in anatomical regions where the full wound surface and depth cannot be captured (e.g. deep fistulas, tunnels, or undermined areas not accessible through surface imaging). Wounds with excessive exudation or infection that prevents adequate visual assessment. Patients who are unable or unwilling to provide informed consent. Patients with a known allergy or adverse reaction to any component used in the image acquisition process (where applicable). Wounds with specific identifiable attributes (e.g. on the face, or containing birthmarks or tattoos) where ethical considerations regarding data handling apply.
