Up to 90 days. No structured surveillance. Until now.
PostOp Navigator delivers procedure-specific post-discharge wound monitoring — grounded in CDC/NHSN definitions, reviewed by trained triage nurses, and powered by IncisionIQ AI scoring.
After discharge, patients receive paper instructions. Practices receive uncontrolled inbound — calls, portal messages, photos via text — with no structure, no standardization, no documentation trail.
Wound photos and symptoms arrive via personal cell, portal, and voicemail — no triage logic, no standardization, no surveillance.
Post-discharge wound status is reconstructed after the fact — incomplete, inconsistent, and legally indefensible when a complication leads to a claim.
Without a standardized review workflow, early wound changes go unescalated. The window for early intervention quietly closes.
A closed-loop system from discharge to documentation. No new hardware. No workflow disruption.
Procedure-specific plan delivered to iOS app at discharge
Guided daily wound photos + symptom check-ins, timestamped
IncisionIQ analyzes against procedure-specific healing baselines
Every AI flag reviewed by a trained nurse before any escalation
Full time-stamped audit trail — defensible, complete, exportable
Every submission creates a permanent, time-stamped record of post-discharge diligence — before a claim is filed.
Structured daily submissions surface wound changes when they're still manageable — not after a readmission.
Triage nurses handle the volume. Surgeons see only filtered, prioritized escalations.

IncisionIQ applies CDC/NHSN wound surveillance criteria to every patient submission — with procedure context, healing phase calibration, and longitudinal change detection from day one.
Healing expectations normalized per procedure, closure type, and post-op day.
Each patient's wound compared against their own prior images and expected recovery curve.
The model learns what normal healing looks like for each surgeon's specific technique.
Terminology already embedded in hospital policy, payer contracts, and malpractice standards.
Every AI finding passes through a trained triage nurse — a structured input to clinical judgment.
Every other clinical AI applies population averages to your patients. IncisionIQ builds a model that is specific to your technique, your closure style, your outcomes — and gets more accurate with every case you do.
The AI stops using population averages and starts building a preliminary reference for your typical wound appearance across your most common procedures.
A statistically meaningful surgeon-specific dataset has formed. Procedure-specific baselines stabilize. Your RN spends less time on routine noise and more time on real flags.
Your personalized model reaches 90–95% sensitivity. It is now more predictive for your patients than any published population average in the surgical literature.
Your longitudinal dataset supports outcome publications, quality reporting, and payer negotiations. The data your practice has generated becomes a strategic advantage no competitor can replicate.
Surgeons who join earlier build a longer head start.
Your model starts the day your first patient submits.
Every question a patient would call about is answered in the app before they pick up the phone — calibrated to their procedure, their surgeon, their recovery day.
Phase-specific protocols reach the patient's phone the moment surgery is logged. No paper, no PDF emails, no staff prep.
Wound care, activity limits, pain, diet — answered in the app by phase and procedure. Your front desk handles fewer interruptions.
Photos go through the app, not a nurse's personal phone. Every interaction documented and routed — nothing buried in a portal inbox.
Procedure-specific prompts, automatically timestamped and routed for review
AI analysis against procedure-specific healing baselines before RN review
Nothing reaches the surgeon without passing through a trained triage nurse
Surgical malpractice cases rarely turn on what you did in the OR. They turn on what you can prove you did — or didn't do — in the 30–90 days after the patient walked out. PostOp Navigator is your documented answer.
Most post-discharge malpractice cases are won or lost on the completeness of the record — not on the clinical decision itself.
"The absence of documentation is not neutral. It is evidence."
When wound photos arrive via text or personal email, they exist outside the legal record — unstructured, undatable, and potentially inadmissible.
"If it isn't in the chart, it didn't happen."
Every submission is timestamped, scored, and documented in a complete audit trail — from the moment the patient walks out of the OR.
"The surgeon who uses IncisionIQ has proof of diligence."
Every specialty has different wound biology, healing timelines, and risk profiles. PostOp Navigator treats them that way.
Portal site and open incision protocols calibrated by closure type, drain presence, and post-op day.
