A new mobile application could help doctors better provide care to patients with advanced lung cancer, perhaps even extending life expectancy, according to a study presented in the United States Monday.
The app, named Moovcare, enables patient-doctor communication even at a distance, using remote monitoring to quickly detect relapses or complications.
“This approach introduces a new era of follow-up in which patients can give and receive continuous feedback between visits,” said lead author Dr. Fabrice Denis, a cancer researcher in Le Mans, France.
