In Conversation with the My MPN Voice app team – Dr Patrick Harrington, Debbie Street and Mark Taylor. The team talk to Nona about the recently launched My MPN Voice app:
- the objectives and goals of the app and associated research study that patients will be taking part in, via the app and the wearable devices, recording daily biometric data and scoring of symptoms
- the benefits for patients using the app to be able to keep a daily record of symptoms using the MPN 10 symptom assessment tool, which can be shared with healthcare teams
- direct links via the app noticeboard to the MPN Voice website; HealthUnlocked; health and wellbeing advice
- the launch, in four stages, of the app and the linked research study and the importance of collecting data from MPN patients and how this data will be presented at medical conferences, patients’ forums and published in medical journals

- the partnership with the Guy’s & St Thomas’ NHS Foundation Trust
