Quality of life
A Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) can be used to monitor research subjects' quality of life regardless of the therapeutic area. A VAS valuation for quality of life is usually made on a scale of 0 to 100. (e.g. 0 = the worst possible condition, 100 = the best possible condition). The service enables const-effective monitoring of the VAS scores of research patients.
In this example, patients in a psoriasis study are asked to report their condition using VAS. Patients can respond easily with their own mobile phone.

In this example, the service generates a graph illustrating the development of VAS values according to the answers of research subjects. Patients can also be divided into different groups and the graphs can be used for monitoring results. |
