Getting global Rare disease Insights through Technology (GRIT)
M.A.G.I.C Clinic
The M.A.G.I.C Clinic is conducting the GRIT Study using the Zamplo app to explore if a connected health platform increases patients' engagement in their healthcare treatment, and see how the app can help Dr. Khan and other physicians treat patients.
During the study, 50% of participants will have access to Zamplo to use the app as they like, by creating journal entries, recording and tracking medication and completing a few questionnaires about their experience.
