OpenPhoda-SeV

Open Source version of the Phoda-SeV scale for Chronic Low Back Pain

The University of Leuven releases a proprietary version of the Phoda-SeV in "Windows" format. I thought it may have been useful to create a version of the software which (provided that a browser and internet connection is available) is capable to:

• run on any possible machine at any time
• add data to a single, fast and reliable relational database

OpenPhoda-SeV is free to use on this website

I have installed a fully functioning version of OpenPhoda on this website and it is free to use. I cannot guarantee how long this instance will run but if you are concerned or if you want to know more about OpenPhoda drop me a message here

What is OpenPhoda-SeV?

OpenPhoda-SeV is a webapp for delivery of the electronic version of the PHODA (Photograph Series of Daily Activities), a diagnostic tool using which uses photographs to determine the threat value of different physical activities and movements. Exactly like Phoda-SeV this tool offers a quick and simple way for therapists to create a fear hierarchy for patients that may be influenced by some degree of fear of movement.
