DermaValue was developed by dermatologists and scientists from the University Medical Center Hamburg/Germany and the German Network for psoriasis (PsoNet) lead by Professor Matthias Augustin. DermaValue was requested by national and international societies for dermatology in order to support clinical practice and patient care. DermaValue offers doctors and patients a fast and personalized access to electronic outcome measures in skin diseases. The tools are provided web-based and by a multi-platform app. By using our platform, individual patient medical data can be saved and managed at any time. Patients can select the tools individually, fill out the forms, save results, follow treatment and monitor outcomes. The results permit doctors to get a more precise overview of the development of their patient condition. It doesn't aim to replace a visit to a doctor, rather complement it.
