Summary

This is a implementation research study of a surgical wound tele-monitoring online tool developed at the University of Edinburgh and demonstrated in the "Tracking wound infection with smartphone technology" (TWIST) randomised control trial (NCT02704897) conducted in NHS Lothian. The study design is based on the Medical Research Council (MRC) "Guidance for developing and evaluating complex interventions".

Conditions

  • Surgical Site Infection

Interventions

DEVICE

Intervention

Similar to the original TWIST trial , patients will receive access to the online tool hosted on the ISLA platform until postoperative day 30 which is composed of two parts: 1. A series of simple questions related to the detection of surgical wound infection (e.g. redness, swelling, fluid leakage, etc). These questions would be expected to be routinely asked during in-person assessment, and these questions have been previously developed and tested within the TWIST trial (the only change being the addition of questions specifically relating to the change in these symptoms). 2. At least one image of their surgical wound(s).
