Objectives

Objectives

Getting to a scenario in which self-management of enzyme replacement in the European Cystic Fibrosis patients by means of a mobile application (APP) is achieved and implemented. 

The reason for MyCyFAPP

The reason for MyCyFAPP

The raison d'être of this project is the need to develop/create an evidence-based tool to tackle the existing gap on the adapted-to-patients enzyme replacement dosage therapy.

A predictive model

A predictive model

We are going to develop and validate a model for optimal PERT adjustment, by integrating for the first time results obtained through in vitro and in vivo digestibility studies.

Benefits for patients

Benefits for patients

The system allows for a nutritional evaluation of the patients’ diet, real-time optimal enzyme dosage prediction for a specific and offers educational tools for patients

Elements

Elements

MyCyFAPP comprises tools for self-management for patients, educational resources and professional platforms for healthcare teams

Pilot study

Pilot study

The pilot studio developed after the determination of the “Theoretical Optimal Dose” of enzymatic supplements (TOD) suggested that the new proposed methodology derived from the in vitro digestion studies is reliable and can be used for clinical purposes
