CALM:Collaboratively Augmenting Longitudinal MonitoringCo-design & Co-production, our journey so far…Kelly McGurk, Olivia & Phil Hewitt, Adi Sharmaon behalf of the CALM Team
Agenda • Background: Why and what is CALM? • INVOLVE: Co-design and Co-Production • Benefits to young people and their families • Evaluation and qualitative feedback • Next Steps
Why CALM? Monitoring mood is very helpful: • Allows a sense of autonomy and self-regulation • Informs the identification of a personalised ‘relapse signature’ and ‘early warning signs’ • Conventionally done in ABS using pen and paper:
Why CALM? • Young people wanted an App! • Using email, completion of mood charts increased from 30% to 60% • Sought pump priming funding from NTW
What is CALM? • CALM is an innovative mobile Application • Co-designed and co-produced with young people, 16-25 years, with Bipolar Disorder, their family members, clinicians, researchers and members of Boxmodel • Offers an easy way of logging daily moods and emotions. • A way of longitudinal monitoring as per NICE guidelines.
INVOLVE: Co-design May 2015 – June 2016 6 weekly workshops: 6 young people and 6 parents Discussion focus: self management of Bipolar Disorder Socialisation Learning Excitement Relaxation Distraction Regulation
INVOLVE: Co-production • June 2016 – September 2016 • 6 weekly workshops with 6 participants and 6 parents • Discussion focus: production of the App • Developed the App in December 2016
Mood charting • No numbers • Sliding scales that change colour
Gives live feedback to young people on ‘how’ they are doing • Can identify patterns over time
Lifeline • Useful in crisis situation
Qualitative Feedback • Interviewed 10 young people • Questions exploring usability of the App • Inform next steps of App development
QUALITATIVE RESULTS: KEY THEMES • Describe the App • “…Helpful…discrete…simple…quick” • Favourite Features • Slide scale • Lifeline • Graphs • Least liked • Not having reminders • Writing section • Not enough emotions in dictionary
QUALITATIVE RESULTS: KEY THEMES What would you add / change about the App? • Add blank slide scale • Add more words to the emotion dictionary “”I would probably change some of the words on itand add things like tired, excited, cheerful”” • Personalise the App i.e. colour schemes, profiles and what helps me section • Interactive i.e. add games • Closed group forum i.e. learn from others experiences • Dashboard for services • Add reminders i.e. have secret code/word
Our Vision Further develop the CALM App to respond to the requirements outlined by the current users: • GPS tracking for the Lifeline feature • Customisable alerts and reminders • App personalisation i.e. profile • Medicinal information • Therapeutic activities i.e. interactive mindfulness, games, doodle page • Integrate wearables (activity, sleep patterns, heart rate) • Development of a buddy App (USP) • Clinician dashboard development • Expand the user-base to include patients with other forms of mental health disorders Bipolar UK have provided support for this project.
Benefits to Clinicians • Better use of clinician time: • See the right person at right time i.e. person centered care • Reducing metabolic syndrome • Linked to RIO documents • Dashboard for professionals • Cost-effective • Leaner way of practicing
Benefits for NTW • An ‘Outstanding’ Trust needs outstanding innovation • Will keep us at cutting edge • Inform NIHR grantapplications • Potential for commercialization as IP held with NTW
