Testing a smartphone app for managing hospital discharge
Part of Lungs & breathing, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether a smartphone app called Medidux helps you manage your symptoms and discharge from the hospital if you came in with coughing, back pain, or belly discomfort. You'll use the app to report how you're feeling, and the care team can check in with you after you leave.
