Numerous research studies suggest that behavioral methods that mask sensation of pain can lead to significant improvement in quality of life. In many studies, these techniques been demonstrated to be as effective as other methods of managing pain.
nendo is a digital tool that may help kids with pain (for e.g. as side effects of cancer treatment or due to cancer) by providing them with behavioral techniques that can improve how they live with their pain. Nendo has not been reviewed or approved by the Food & Drug Administration or relevant health authorities and is not intended to diagnose or treat any medical condition. Please read the instructions for use.
Pain has a huge mental and social component. Kids hospitalization and medical interventions cause much agitation by itself and inflicts psychological pain. Furthermore, there is a lack of dedicated pain Psychologists to interact with all the children to deliver support during the in-patients rounds and when they leave the hospital. nen is endeavoring to support children experiencing pain by providing a tool that could be used in the hospital or home environment to help maskpain signals.
