MyPal
Fostering palliative care of adults and children with cancer through advanced patient reported outcome (PRO) systems.
MyPal is a research project that aims to improve palliative care for adults and children with cancer. It aims to empower people with cancer and their carers to more accurately record their symptoms and enable more transparent and timely communication of these to their care providers. MyPal takes advantage of advances in digital health and mobile technology by developing a fun app for children and an ePRO app for adults. The implementation and effectiveness of both interventions will be tested in clinical settings in five European countries with seven partners. These studies will focus on two different patient groups: adults with hematological cancers and children with solid tumors or hematological cancers. The project is scheduled for completion in June 2022.
