Skin NTDs App vs Tropical Medicine Usage & Stats
The skin of a patient is the first and most visible structure of the body that any health-care worker encounters during the course of an examination. To the patient, it is also highly visible, and any disease that affects it is noticeable and will have an impact on personal and social well-being. The skin is therefore an important entry point for both diagnosis and management. Many diseases of humans are associated with changes to the skin, ranging from symptoms such as itching to changes in colour, feel and appearance. The major neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) frequently produce such changes in the skin, re-enforcing the feelings of isolation and stigmatization experienced by patients affected by these diseases.

Guidelines and protocols are important sources of information for medical specialists (in training) and medical students. By correctly interpreting these sources, they deliver the best care to their patients.
Unfortunately, guidelines and protocols are often large, hard-to-read documents, which can make finding specific content time-consuming.
In addition, they are not always within easy reach in remote areas.
By interpreting and user-friendly modeling the essence of these resources, their (offline) use can help and relieve the caregiver. This benefits both the patient and the caregiver.
The app "Tropical Medicine" is intended for all healthcare providers involved in tropical medicine and contains guidelines, flow charts and calculators.
Disclaimer:
The "Tropical Medicine" app is intended exclusively for medical specialists, assistant physicians, residents and medical students and provides an overview of protocols of Tropical Medicine. The app is not intended to be used by the patients themselves, who are advised to consult a doctor in case of complaints.
