Pain
Changes in the pain level e.g. chronic pain-, rheuma-, cancer-, and fibromyalgia patients can be monitored with VAS (Visual Analogue Scale). The VAS score is determined on a scale of 0 to 10. (e.g. 0 = no pain, 10 = worst possible pain). The service enables const-effective monitoring of research patients' condition on the basis of the VAS score.
In this example, patients are asked about their condition in a pain medicine study. Patients can respond easily with their own mobile phone.

In this example, the service generates a graph of the development of VAS values according to the research subjects' answers. The graphs can also be used in monitoring a selected group of patients. |
