New app aims to help patients with brain-signal disorder track symptoms in real time
NCT ID NCT07372755
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a mobile app designed for people with functional movement disorder (FMD), a condition where the brain doesn't send movement signals properly. The app lets users record symptoms, stress, and mood as they happen, and offers simple self-help tools. Ten adults with FMD will use the app for 6 weeks to see if it's easy to use and helpful for managing their condition.
