Co-creation sessions for advancing the development of the mIPROLEPSIS app
iPROLEPSIS active engagement with users through ongoing co-creation sessions helps to advance the development of the mIPROLEPSIS app, scheduled for delivery before January 2024.
In October 2023, the project partner Erasmus MC (EMC) conducted a co-creation session with patient partners to assess the User Interface (UI) of the PDPID-app. The focus was on improving usability, ensuring users’ understanding of expectations and enhancing users’ engagement to minimise missing data.
The project partner FACULDADE DE MOTRICIDADE HUMANA (FMH-ULISBOA), is also developing storyboards for the personalised gaming suite. Three co-creation sessions were conducted: one with healthcare professionals and two with patient partners.
Project partners The Centre for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH) and FACULDADE DE MOTRICIDADE HUMANA (FMH-ULISBOA), in collaboration with the clinical partners, worked on identifying movements for the video analysis that will be included in the iPROLEPSIS-PDPID study. Multiple hand gestures and fullbody movements were identified for further assessment.
