Using smartphones to track physical changes in ALS
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study uses smartphone apps and digital tools to track physical changes in people with ALS. It aims to better understand how the disease affects daily function, which could help improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must have a diagnosis of ALS from a neurologist.
- You must already be part of the Precision ALS study.
- You need to be willing to use a smartphone or tablet for the study.
- You must have a stable internet connection at home.
