Improving pain management with PainChek® and MPS Connect

MPS Connect has partnered with PainChek® to improve pain management for people living in aged care and those receiving care at home.

PainChek’s digital pain assessment app is to integrate with the MediSphere™ medication management system from MPS Connect, enabling complete pain intervention in one software system.

The landmark integration combines PainChek’s regulatory cleared medical device with MPS’ intelligent medication management to deliver effective pain management and treatment for people living in aged care and those receiving care at home. This partnership will enhance the user experience and health outcomes for consumers, carers, residents and nurses alike.

Together, PainChek and MediSphere will:

• provide detailed information of pain at the delivery of pain relief medication
• remove the subjectivity of someone’s pain threshold and pain relief
• trend the effectiveness of pain relief medication on pain rating over time, and alerts changes to PRN pain relief
• provide consistency as the same tool is used when reviewing the outcome of pain relief
• establish a pain management routine, from home care through to residential aged care
• provide a holistic approach to pain and medication management.

Of this partnership, PainChek CEO Philip Daffas said:

“The MPS MediSphere™ solution is innovative and the integration of PainChek® into its medication management suite ensures all home consumers can receive best-practice pain and medication management. PainChek® was developed specifically to ensure we had a pain assessment solution that also meets the needs of the global aged care, home care, hospital and disability markets.”

MPS Connect Head of Healthcare Operations, Renee Watson, said this integration will advance pain management for home-based consumers.

“We are delighted to integrate the PainChek® solution into MediSphere™, creating an integrated pain assessment and medication management solution for our home-based consumers. We are already a major supplier of pain medication in Australia and this collaboration further elevates our offering to that of a total pain management solution.”
