ResearchApp vs OxMET

ResearchApp allows you to take part in a study that you've consented to participate in. In order to be able to join a study you will need to enter your token code that would have been provided to you by an organisation conducting the research. ResearchApp has been developed to help research teams accelerate new medicines discovery and to find ways to improve health outcomes for people all over the world. None of this can be achieved without the generous time and participation of research participants. If you have any questions about the study you are participating in, please contact the organisation conducting the study. ResearchApp offers a range of tracking questionnaires to capture information about yourself and your conditions. If enabled for your particular study, ResearchApp also allows you to connect to HealthKit and other third-party apps and devices in order to share this data with your research team. If you are a researcher wanting to conduct a study please get in touch: research@healtbit.com.

OxMET was developed by the Translational Neuropsychology Research Group at the University of Oxford. The OxMET cognitive screen has been standardised, normed and validated (Webb et al 2021, Neuropsychological Rehabilitation). OxMET is suitable for use with adults, and in chronic (greater 6-month post-stoke) and subacute (greater 3 months post-stroke). The tool is not for self-assessment. Instead, OxMET provides health professionals with a brief, ecologically valid, assessment of executive dysfunction using a naturalistic shopping scenario. The test is automatically scored and evaluated against age adjusted norms (three age groups; under 64, between 64 and 72, and over 72). Upon completion, a visual snapshot report is automatically generated and can be stored locally on the device. The information contained in the report is not in itself a clinical diagnosis. The report should be used to inform a clinical diagnosis that takes into account all relevant clinical factors.
