Using a phone app to help manage long-term health needs
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Immune system & allergy, Injuries & trauma, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests a mobile phone system that helps people with long-term, complex health conditions manage daily life and get support. If you can use a smartphone and pass the study checks, you may be able to try the self-management tools.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 12 years old
- You have a long-term, complex condition (examples include spina bifida, spinal cord injury, cerebral palsy, or traumatic brain injury)
- You live in your community (not in a care facility where staff provide daily care)
- You can complete the study’s smartphone and skills screening checks
- Your challenges can be supported by the phone system (it can’t work if you fail the key screenings with no workable support)

This trial tests if mobile health support (texts and calls) helps caregivers of people with traumatic brain injury after rehab. You may join as the main caregiver if you supervise daily care and have a smartphone or can get one.
This study tests a smartphone program and coaching to help people with spinal cord injury follow recommended exercise routines. It may help you increase how much you exercise and improve adherence to exercise guidelines.
This Phase 2 study tests whether a smartphone and smartwatch plan can help people with spinal cord injury be more physically active. It may help you build safer, more consistent movement if you’re already ready to be active and can use your arms.
This study tests a mobile health app designed to help veterans with spinal cord injury and their family caregivers. The app may provide support and resources to improve health and well-being.
This study tests a smartphone or computer app designed to help people with long-term health conditions like arthritis, heart disease, or stroke manage their own recovery. The goal is to see if using the app improves daily living and reduces disability.
This study tests a mobile-based care model to help people with certain neurological or orthopedic conditions manage their health at home. It may be a good fit if you can walk (with or without a cane or walker), have a caregiver who can help, and can use a smartphone or tablet with internet.
