EMCare is strictly designed for participants in the study “Implementation of an eHealth strategy in the management of patients with multiple sclerosis” and should be used only for the purpose of this study. This application has been designed to monitor patients with multiple sclerosis in a passive way, through the typing speed on their own keyboard (Mautilus...) and the steps/day measured by an accelerometer integrated into their own keyboard. Only physical function variables are recorded.
EMCare features other features such as multiple sclerosis information and a symptom diary, as well as access to health and quality of life questionnaires on multiple sclerosis symptoms.
