How does the CF Hero app help patients with cystic fibrosis?

Thanks to the gamification, the CF Hero application encourages you to follow the inhalation plan and outperform your previous scores.

The app fosters correct breathing technique during inhalation and respiratory rehabilitation.

With funny and educational comics, the CF Hero app breaks down some taboos of everyday life with CF.

CF Hero app relies on a playful design to make teenagers more willing to follow the prescribed therapy and, most importantly, to make them know why they are practicing it.

The app helps transfer the responsibility for treatment to the patient.

Physicians, physiotherapists and psychologists from CF centers participated in the mechanics of the CF Hero application.
We have also worked with specialists for building habits.

In various phases of the project, we tested the app concepts and subsequently the application with selected CF patients and tried to incorporate their feedback into the current version of CF Hero.

Why are we doing this?

From our own experience we know how challenging it is to follow the daily routine for CF patients. Although the progression is often unpredictable, patients themselves can positively influence it by adhering to treatment and lifestyle choices. The goal of CF Hero application is to make long inhalations and respiratory rehabilitations that the patients have to undergo every day more efficient and effective.
