M-sense objectifies, analyzes and guides patients with mobile therapies to proactively influence the course of the disease.

How does this work?

M-sense first collects migraine-relevant data. This data comes from weather databases, already existing data pools on the smartphone (e.g. health kits) as well as vital data, which are fed into the app via a connection of wearables. M-sense connects this automatically collected environmental and body data with individual migraine attacks. How was the pressure fluctuation before the last five attacks? Does irregular sleep in combination with missed meals and little physical activity increase the number of my pain days?

Answers to questions like these are provided to the user through multifactorial analyses that examine the influence of various factors on the severity, length and frequency of the attacks. In this first step, patients can identify the main factors influencing their pain - without much effort, easily and via an intuitively designed user interface.

The goal of M-sense is to guide users to proactively influence migraine attacks. In the next step, the app offers individualized instructions based on the user's level of knowledge to reduce the frequency of attacks. Times with a high probability of attacks are automatically recognized by pattern recognition algorithms and therapeutic approaches such as biofeedback and relaxation methods are provided to the user at the right time. The user is motivated to use them and is rewarded by targeted feedback.
In addition to these direct benefits for patients, M-sense creates the necessary data basis that doctors need for a therapy tailored to the patient. M-sense offers the platform to discuss these data and medication plans with the physician and align them individually.
