Terms of Use & Clinical Disclaimer

Important conditions governing use of Doctor Burn. Last updated 26 September 2026.

Doctor Burn is a clinical decision-support and workflow platform. It does not replace professional medical judgment, hospital protocols or appropriately qualified healthcare professionals.

1. Professional-use decision support

Doctor Burn is intended to support appropriately qualified healthcare professionals and authorized healthcare organizations with burn-care workflow, documentation, calculations, prioritization, image tracking and operational management. Doctor Burn is not a substitute for independent clinical judgment, physical examination, diagnosis, treatment decisions, emergency response, hospital policies, applicable clinical guidelines, or consultation with an appropriately qualified specialist.

2. No autonomous diagnosis or treatment

Outputs, calculations, alerts, AI-assisted suggestions, classifications, timers, forecasts and other information generated or displayed by Doctor Burn are decision-support information only. They must be independently reviewed and verified by the responsible healthcare professional before being relied upon for patient care. Users remain responsible for all clinical decisions and for confirming that inputs, patient data, burn-area selections, burn-depth classifications, fluid calculations and other information are accurate and complete.

3. AI limitations

AI-supported functions may be incomplete, inaccurate, unavailable or inappropriate for a particular patient or clinical situation. AI output must not be treated as a definitive diagnosis, medical instruction or autonomous treatment recommendation. Users must consider the patient's complete clinical condition and use professional judgment.

4. Calculations and protocols

TBSA estimates, fluid-related calculations and other clinical calculations depend on the information entered by the user and the method or protocol configured for the relevant institution. Results must be checked against the institution's approved protocols and independently verified before clinical use. Doctor Burn does not guarantee that any calculation or suggested workflow is appropriate for an individual patient.

5. Time-critical and emergency care

Doctor Burn must not be the sole means of identifying or responding to an emergency or time-critical deterioration. Users must follow their hospital's emergency procedures and established clinical escalation pathways. Technical failure, network interruption, delayed notifications or unavailable services must never delay necessary patient care.

6. Images and clinical records

Uploaded images and recorded burn classifications are clinical documentation supplied or confirmed by users. Users are responsible for ensuring appropriate consent, authorization, data quality and lawful handling of patient information. Image-based information should be interpreted in the context of direct clinical assessment and other relevant patient information.

7. Availability and accuracy

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Doctor Burn is provided subject to the applicable commercial agreement and without a guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or suitable for every clinical circumstance. Users must maintain appropriate clinical and operational contingency procedures.

8. Allocation of responsibility

Healthcare professionals and healthcare organizations are responsible for the medical care they provide, including diagnosis, treatment, patient monitoring, escalation, compliance with professional standards, and the use or non-use of information supplied by Doctor Burn. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation is prohibited by applicable law, including liability that cannot lawfully be waived.

9. Regulatory status and local law

The regulatory classification of software functions can vary by feature, intended use and jurisdiction. Availability of particular Doctor Burn functions may therefore differ by market. Users and contracting healthcare organizations are responsible for using the service only as authorized and in accordance with applicable laws, professional requirements and institutional policies. Doctor Burn is in development and has no regulatory clearance in any market.

10. Acceptance

By accessing or using Doctor Burn, the user confirms that they understand these limitations and, where applicable, are authorized by their healthcare organization to use the service. Separate customer agreements, data-processing terms and jurisdiction-specific terms may also apply.
