PainChek® Adult is intended to be used by medical doctors, registered nurses, licensed practical and vocational nurses, certified nursing assistants and physiotherapist and occupational therapists to assess pain in people (also known as Residents) with moderate to severe dementia in nursing homes.
PainChek® Adult is a Pain Assessment software system which is comprised of the following components:
-
PainChek® App
-
PainChek® Portal
-
PainChek® Application Programming Interface (API)
-
PainChek® Database
The PainChek® App is a mobile application that uses facial recognition and analysis technology to detect facial features indicative of the presence of pain and then combines these data with non-facial pain features to confirm the presence and intensity of pain. The PainChek® App is downloaded from the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store and it is generally used in much the same way as any other App.
The PainChek® Portal is a secure website that allows you to manage your Resident data, PainChek® License, Facilities, Users, installations and edit your PainChek® profile settings. See the "PainChek® Portal User Guide” for the instructions on how to use the PainChek® Portal.
The PainChek® API provides the means for the PainChek® App and PainChek® Portal to access the PainChek® Database in a secure, authenticated and controlled manner. It is also possible to grant third parties access to the API to enable PainChek® to be integrated with other systems (e.g. a client’s electronic patient care management system).
The PainChek® Database stores all of the PainChek® data (e.g. Users, Residents and Assessment details).
