A NEW ONLINE TOOL TO HELP WITH AT-HOME PAIN MANAGEMENT: PINPOINT™

Using gaming technology, Pinpoint™ is a web app that provides a safe, convenient tool for teens to learn about, track, assess, and communicate about their sickle cell pain with medical providers and parents right from their smartphone or tab­let.

Pinpoint™ offers an innovative Pain Assessment Tool and a Pain Diary to log physical and emotional pain symptoms. All with the touch of a finger, patients like you can describe and assess the intensity, duration, quality, nature, and location of your pain and report it to your parents and/or your physician via e-mail and with an option to print the report as well.

Pinpoint™ is a web app and works on any smartphone or smart mobile device. You can play games, watch videos, learn preventive health tips, and visit the Patient Stories sec­tion with real stories and inspirational messages told by other sickle cell patients. Pinpoint™ also includes various relaxation activities to further assist with at-home pain management.

Pinpoint™ was developed by Klein Buendel, Hilton Publishing Company, and a large team of medical experts and parents of children with sickle cell disease. The research and development was funded through a Small Business research grant (SBIR) awarded in 2016 by the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and through that research study, Pinpoint™ was clinically proven to help aid in the management of pain caused by SCD.
