Mental Health

Understand mental health and well-being through participant-reported experiences, cognitive assessments, digital behavior, and real-world data

Overview

Avicenna enables clinical trials to accelerate effective treatment development and improve patient outcomes in conditions that are affecting mental health.

Over the past years, our technology has been used in diverse scientific research projects and clinical trials including substance abuse, eating disorders, alcohol use disorder, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), depression, and mood disorder.

We have a proven track record of delivering value to universities, research institutions, hospitals, contract research organizations, and government research labs.

Our outcome assessment tool allows researchers to measure patients’ symptoms, overall mental state, or the effects of a disease or condition on how a patient functions. It can also be used to assess whether health interventions have indicated a benefit or an adverse effect on patients.

Features

  1. Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA)

    Use the power of EMAs to study and understand the effect of temporal changes of dynamic variables that are hard to capture in common laboratory assessments.

  2. Cognitive Assessment

    Administer highly sensitive and fully customizable digital cognition tasks repeatedly throughout your study to identify changes in cognitive function across study populations.

  3. Sensor-Based Behavior Measurement

    Use sensor data collected from smartphones and wearables in ambulatory assessments and for studying treatment-resistant conditions.

  4. Advanced Reminders

    Create a routine with notifications and reminders for participants. Avicenna provides different notification mediums, including in-app notifications, SMS, and email, so you can reach participants at the right time and support adherence to your study protocol.

  5. TeleVisit

    Avicenna’s fully customizable tele-visiting feature allows you to have seamless conversations with researchers or participants in your study. Using video, audio, and chat conversations with participants, you can scale your outreach, help your participants navigate your study, and increase overall participation satisfaction.

  6. Reward-Based Engagement

    Use Avicenna’s interactive rewards and gamification features to keep participants engaged along their journey and increase the compliance rate.

  7. App Usage

    Collect app usage data to study digital behavior, screen time, and social media use in relation to mental health.

  8. Screen State

    Collect screen-state data to study smartphone use and digital behavior in relation to mental health, stress, anxiety, and mood changes.
