Gulp!

Gulp! is designed to assist speech therapists specializing in myofunctional therapy by enhancing the compliance of patients undergoing orofacial muscle imbalance and deviant swallowing therapy. This app provides a unique opportunity for professionals to engage their patients with a more dynamic approach to therapy, thereby encouraging better adherence to prescribed exercises. With its intuitive design, Gulp! offers a comprehensive tool for tailoring treatment plans, making sessions more interactive and beneficial.

Versatile Features for Both Therapists and Patients

Gulp! is structured into distinct sections to cater to both therapy professionals and their patients. The 'LOGOPEDISTA' section empowers therapists to personalize treatment plans, allowing the selection of over 200 exercises specifically tailored to individual patient needs. These are categorized into macro-categories, including breathing, muscular gymnastics, swallowing, generalization, and articulation, with further subdivisions to enhance selectivity. Meanwhile, the 'IL MIO PROGRAMMA' section focuses on patient interaction, providing easy access to their custom exercise list complete with repetitions, written descriptions, and video demonstrations. A reminder feature helps patients adhere to their routines, promoting increased autonomy.

Encouraging Patient Autonomy and Effective Monitoring

The 'LINGUA' feature aids in developing self-awareness of lingual posture and includes input features for the patient to document correct or incorrect positioning. This function allows therapists to track exercise execution and analyze daily posture statistics during sessions. The app also includes an 'INFO' section, which offers general information and a tutorial to enhance user understanding and engagement.

Gulp! is specifically crafted to improve patient compliance, break the monotony of traditional therapy, and utilize exercises backed by specific myofunctional therapy texts. Ultimately, it represents a significant advancement in customizable rehabilitation programs, providing the tools necessary for successful therapy outcomes.
