The app developed by the Laboratory of Psychology and Technology (Labpsitec) of the Universitat Jaume I of Castelló for the control of chronic pain will be tested in nine hospitals in Catalonia after the good results achieved in the improvement of treatments with patients in the Vall d'Hebron University Hospital in Barcelona. The computer application developed by the Labspitec group of the UJI, in collaboration with the University of Barcelona and the CIBERobn of the Carlos III Health Institute, serves to evaluate and monitor the influence of pain in the life of patients with chronic pain and the efficacy of its treatment. The app has been scientifically validated, according to the results of the study published recently in the prestigious *Clinical Journal of Pain*.

The registered and validated software "Monitor del Dolor” (“Pain Monitor”) is ready for installation and use on Android devices. The free and open app is useful for its application in sectors such as the pharmaceutical industry and the development of more effective pain medications, hospitals and centres dedicated to the care of patients with chronic pain and clinical and research trials in clinical psychology.
