# What will AGI do for Post-Op Infection Tracking?

## Overview

Surgical care teams lose visibility of wound healing the moment a patient leaves the hospital. Post-operative infections typically develop between days three and seven, precisely when patients are recovering at home and ill-equipped to distinguish normal inflammation from early-stage sepsis. Surgeons and triage nurses rely on patient-initiated phone calls, resulting in late interventions for actual infections and unnecessary emergency room visits for routine healing processes.

Tracking these infections requires continuous visual assessment and patient-reported symptoms, but existing electronic health records lack secure, asynchronous image-capture workflows. When patients do share photos, they send them through disjointed channels like personal email or unsecured text messages, forcing clinical staff to manually retrieve, review, and upload images to the medical record. The sheer volume of discharged patients makes routine, manual photo review impossible for overextended care teams.

Current remote patient monitoring tools focus on continuous biometric data like heart rate or blood pressure, which fail to capture localized wound complications before systemic infection sets in. Clinical teams lack a mechanism to systematically gather surgical site images, evaluate clinical signs of erythema or exudate, and escalate high-risk cases automatically without burying nurses in unorganized image queues.
