UlcerAPP will facilitate, as well as try to improve, the diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of ulcers of vascular etiology. This application will have an informative and educational purpose, since the user will be able to access descriptive information on the macroscopic characteristics of ulcers, as well as treatment and recommendations for referral to specialized care. It will also include photos that facilitate the recognition and diagnosis of these ulcers.
The app will be divided into three parts:
- Diagnosis: It will consist of a series of questions that determine the most probable ulcer.
- Treatment: It will consist of a series of questions to determine the best treatment for a specific ulcer.
- Questionnaire: Questionnaire for more information in the field of doctors.

During the diagnosis phase, photographs may be accessed to determine a better diagnosis. There are photos that will be implemented in later versions.

TYPES OF ULCERS:
- ISCHEMIC
- NEUROPATHIC
- NEUROISCHEMIC
- VENOUS OR PHLEBOSTATIC
- MIXED
- HYPERTENSIVE OR MARTORELL
