The app "Monitor de Dolor" ["Pain Monitor"] developed by the Laboratory of Psychology and Technology (LabPsiTec) of the Universitat Jaume I of Castelló has obtained the prize to the best app in Medicine of 2018 granted by the Mediforum Group by vote of the jury in the 3rd SaluDigital Prizes.

"Pain Monitor" is an app designed by a multidisciplinary team of specialists in psychology, medicine and nursing experts in pain from the Universitat Jaume I and the Pain Unit of the Vall d'Hebron Hospital, together with the researcher Irene Zaragozá Álvarez, computer engineer from the Carlos III Health Institute. The award was collected by the researchers Diana Castilla López and Carlos Suso Ribera.

As explained by the researcher Azucena García Palacios, head of the project, the software "Pain Monitor" collects relevant information on how each person experiences pain and the influence of environmental and social conditions on this experience. The tool improves clinical evaluation and treatment, especially in patients with chronic pain, and is also useful in the development of pain medication because it allows to measure its effectiveness and send alarms to undesirable clinical events. It has been tested with good results in the Oncology Unit of the Provincial Hospital of Castelló, in the General University Hospital of Castellón and in a dozen hospitals in Catalonia.
