Popis: In the three months period between March and June 2016 we launched a survey on the AUIC website, open to the contribution of all members, to evaluate the dissemination and use of modern information technology in the treatment of Chronic Skin Lesions (CSL). The now ubiquitous diffusion of desktop and portable computers and mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets has confirmed the World Wide Web (“the Internet”) as a tool for communication and sharing of information and knowledge. With the current daily use of the Internet and the advent of social media there are no longer any limits to communication in all social and employment contexts. In our view, it is clear that the world of wound care could, or rather should, use these important tools in order to improve the standards of care offered to patients on a daily basis. In addition, the entry of a new generation of “digital natives” in the labor market will make the use of these technologies no longer an exception, but the most absolute normality.
