Abstract
We sought to investigate the feasibility of longitudinal monitoring of disease activity from home in people with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Over 6 months, our novel digital tool collected 421 photos of HS-affected skin from 27 participants and captured trends in pain and quality of life scores. We found that participants with mild disease were more likely to share their progress than those with more severe disease, which is favourable as it may suggest a role for remote monitoring in tracking disease progression. This pilot provides proof of concept that will support future studies.
