The Severe Respiratory Insufficiency Application (SRI App): a pilot randomised controlled trial.

An application (app) for the Severe Respiratory Insufficiency Questionnaire (SRI) has been designed and developed for mobile devices. In a randomised controlled trial comprising 60 patients with chronic respiratory failure, the app was compared with the classic paper SRI. Thereby, it was shown that the SRI app is a practical tool that is well accepted.
