Abstract


This paper presents DinoApp, a mobile application developed to support the medical care of children with cancer. DinoApp brings information about the disease and the treatment. For the children, this information is presented in a playful way. The app also offers a communication channel to the medical team and an agenda for the scheduling of medical procedures in the post hospitalization period. With DinoApp we aim at increasing the patient engagement during pediatric cancer treatment.
