About
imitoWound is an AI-driven wound care management solution developed by imito, designed to modernize and accelerate clinical wound documentation and assessment. Built for hospitals, clinics, and wound care teams, the app enables healthcare professionals to capture, measure, and document wounds with precision in a fraction of the time traditionally required — reducing documentation from 20 minutes to approximately 5 minutes per session. The platform leverages AI-powered wound measurement that has been scientifically validated through multiple research publications, providing clinicians with reliable, reproducible wound size and progression data. imitoWound integrates with enterprise Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and VNA systems through industry-standard protocols including FHIR, HL7, LDAP/SAML, and DICOM, ensuring it fits smoothly into existing hospital IT infrastructure. The solution is GDPR-compliant and designed with security in mind, making it suitable for sensitive patient data environments. It is used across more than 60 hospitals and over 35 clinical departments, including emergency, vascular surgery, neurology, urology, and diabetic foot ulcer care. Target users include clinic managers, nursing directors, wound experts, IT managers, and product managers in healthcare settings. imitoWound is part of imito's broader suite of clinical tools, which also includes imitoCam for medical photo documentation and imitoScan for patient document scanning.
