Research summary
This study aims to build on the insights gained from the successful Navimed 1 trial. We aim to investigate the value of enabling patients to report pain directly via a device and deliver a variety of media to the device. We understand that over 50% of the hospital inpatients spend a significant proportion of time with a pain score greater than 2 out of a possible 4. This is significant pain and leads to a poor patient experience. We aim to reduce this by 20%. In addition, the same software application will be offered to chronic pain patients both as inpatients and as outpatients to establish a baseline dataset for future studies and comparison.
