Cutimed® Wound Navigator –
Empowering health care professionals in wound care

As healthcare systems evolve, generalist healthcare professionals—home care nurses, general practitioners, pharmacists—are increasingly involved in wound care. Most have foundational training, but wound care is just one of many responsibilities they manage.

At the same time, wound care itself is growing more complex:

  • A wide range of products from multiple suppliers
  • Limited access to wound care specialists
  • Shifting staff and care settings, which naturally lead to variation in how wounds are assessed and documented
  • Manual workflows that can be time-intensive and difficult to standardise

These realities make it harder to maintain consistency across the care journey and to build a clear picture of how a wound is responding to treatment over time.

What if health care professionals had a tool that fit into their existing routines—one that helped them document wounds clearly, access relevant product information, and bring more structure to everyday care?

That’s where Cutimed Wound Navigator comes in.

It’s a game changer in the real world of wound care when it comes to reporting.

No. The app does not store patient data. You can generate a report and save or share it yourself, but nothing is stored automatically.
Cutimed® Wound Navigator processes and saves data only on your device. It does not access or store any patient information.
No. Photos are not stored by the app, and it complies with GDPR requirements.
Planar (or flat) wounds are those that lie on a flat surface. The app is designed to measure wounds that can be photographed straight on. Wounds that curve around a limb, for example, cannot be measured reliably with a photo.
In some cases, the wound edges may be difficult to detect automatically (for example with crusts, maceration, or irregular skin tears). In these situations, you can manually adjust the wound border in the app to ensure accuracy. This option is available for nurses and clinicians.

Yes. You can order calibration markers directly in the app:

Go to Settings → Get Calibration Markers → Order Calibration Markers

Or, when taking a photo, tap Help → Order Calibration Markers

No. The markers are essential for accurate and consistent measurements. They correct distortions from the camera and ensure reliable results. In version 3.0, the marker tool has been improved to make use easier and more consistent.

Android: Supported from version 12 onward. (Android 10 is no longer supported.)

iOS: Supported from version 14 onward.

How it works

NEW Cutimed Wound Navigator – Shaped by you

Wound care is complex—irregular shapes, time pressure, and varied practices make consistent assessment and documentation a challenge.

Based on direct feedback from healthcare professionals, we’ve enhanced Cutimed Wound Navigator to better support real-world needs.

New features help guide users through the wound capture process, offering visual cues like:

Live view of wound borders

Alerts when the device isn’t held parallel

Lighting condition checks

Hands-free wound measurement for documentation

The hands-free wound measurement means the app automatically captures the wound surface area without the need to tap the screen. Manual adjustment remains available for full control.

These updates aim to bring more structure and consistency to wound documentation, helping healthcare professionals navigate the practical challenges of everyday care.

The Cutimed Wound Navigator app lets me finish my wound assessment much faster than before – and it’s even fun.
