The app's hallmark is its adaptability to each patient's unique requirements, a concept referred to as 360° patient-centricity©.

A recent clinical multi-center study of Paindrainer®, published in the esteemed journal Pain Medicine, showcased notable advancements in areas such as pain interference, physical function, depression, anxiety, and pain catastrophizing over a 12-week study period.

As Paindrainer AB readies itself for the commercial debut of the app in the United States, the company remains steadfast in its commitment to elevating healthcare accessibility and efficiency. The innovative approach encapsulated in Paindrainer® PD1 holds the promise of revolutionizing the management of chronic pain and ultimately leading to improved outcomes for patients.
