Feasibility and usability evaluation of a gamified fatigue management mobile application for persons with multiple sclerosis in everyday life.

Background: Fatigue is the most debilitating and prevalent symptom of multiple sclerosis (MS), affecting up to 80 % of patients and significantly impairing quality of life (QoL). Managing MS fatigue is challenging due to its multifactorial nature, encompassing physical, cognitive, and psychosocial components. Mobile health (mHealth) tools offer promising approaches for self-management, but most lack personalization and rigorous validation.

The Use of Patient-Generated Health Data From Consumer-Grade Mobile Devices in Clinical Workflows: Protocol for a Systematic Review.

Background: With the rapid advancement of mobile technology, the scope of mobile health (mHealth) has expanded to include consumer-grade devices such as smartphones and wearable sensors. These solutions have typically been used for fitness purposes; however, due to their ubiquitous capabilities for data collection, they have the potential to bridge information gaps and supplement data from clinical visits. Patient-generated health data (PGHD) can be derived from mHealth solutions and be used by health care professionals (HCPs) as complementary tools in the care process, yet their integration into clinical workflows presents a myriad of challenges.
