We know that for parents and guardians, motivating children to give themselves daily injections of growth hormone can be a challenge. It is necessary to remember the scheduled appointments, monitor the height and give injections every day. That's why we developed the GroAssist application. GroAssist is designed specifically for parents and guardians of young children who have been prescribed growth hormone, in order to help them get the most out of their therapy, and to respect the injection plan.
The most important functions are:
• Can help parents and carers establish a daily routine by recording injection sites and creating reminders
• “Scratch-scratch” rewards can motivate and involve patients in their treatment
• Growth charts show parents and carers how therapy helps correct growth
• Application data can help make treatment decisions with healthcare professionals
• Parents and carers can share information, to improve continuity when therapy is provided by multiple carers
Note: The patient will need an access code from a healthcare professional to access the application.
