Abstract
IBD Tool is a web application born in 2020 from the collaboration between the research Center LINKS Foundation and the Mauriziano Hospital of Turin. The platform fits in the context of telemedicine: it allows the remote monitoring and treatment of patients suffering from inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), such as Ulcerative Colitis and Chron’s disease. These pathologies are slightly different from each other, but a common element is the fact they all present an alternation of phases of remission, where there are very few symptoms, and relapse, where the illness has a considerably hight impact on patients’ standard of life. In these conditions, a constant monitoring of the symptoms is crucial in order to prevent complications and telemedicine can surely offer a great support without forcing the patient to visit the hospital constantly: that’s where IBD Tool finds its goals.
The web application allows the delivery of remote care, a type of health service that revealed itself to be necessary during Covid-19 era and that can make life easier for people with different needs that are not able to leave the house or to go visit physician frequently
